Engineer III @ Mechanical Design Engineer responsible for taking innovative projects from initial concept to finished product. I was responsible for creating the initial mechanical design and all needed manufacturing drawings, bill of materials, assembly documentation and catalog drawings. From January 2015 to Present (1 year) Greater San Diego AreaMechanical Design Engineer @ Worked with manufacturing team to create and design high quality cable pulling equipment for the Electrical and Telecommunications Industry. • Designed Cable Reel Rollers, Cable Reel Stands, Quad-Blocks, and supporting Industry Equipment • Enabled the use of up to 100,000 Lb. Reels of cable to be easily dispensed • Allowed the constant monitoring of cable tension both Tethered and Wireless • Increased safety of product users through innovative design improvements • Established Engineering and Manufacturing Processes • Administer and Installed Solidworks and PDM Systems • Created and Administrated Part Numbering System for all products • Established document workflow and controlled outside processes From February 2014 to Present (1 year 11 months) Engineer III @ Mechanical Design Engineer responsible for taking innovative projects from initial concept to finished product. I was responsible for creating the initial mechanical design and all needed manufacturing drawings, bill of materials, assembly documentation and catalog drawings. Examples of Accomplishments: Created an automated system around an existing Microtome tissue slicer. • Enabled up to 4 samples to be cut simultaneously • Automatically distributed tissue samples into individual locations for further study. • Improved the run time by 400% and required very little user intervention. • Greatly reduced the human errors inherent in the manual process. • Design led to a patent award. Designed instrument for controlled evaporation of solvent for crystallization formation. • Provided for controlled evaporation of different solutions of dissimilar volatilities simultaneously • Solution temperature could be controlled allowing for adjustments to the evaporation rate. • Allowed control for gases to be introduced into individual wells to help control evaporation and solvent vapor flow. • Provided for 96 samples to be run simultaneously. • Greatly reduced the amount user intervention needed per sample. • Design led to patent award Designed an automated Air Displacement Pipetting instrument. • Allowed for up to 384 tips to be aspirated into and dispensed from simultaneously. • Allowed for automated back-flushing of the tips for cleaning. • Leveraged a manifold design in the tip array allowing for multiple tip configurations. • Innovative design led to a patent award. Designed an automated Western Blot Washer system. • Automatically performs additions of primary and secondary antibodies for incubation. • Continuous orbital rocking, as well as the necessary intervening washes. • Automate process led to a time savings of 4 man hours a day. • Innovative design led to a patent award. From August 2001 to March 2013 (11 years 8 months) Senior Design Engineer @ Acquired by Vertex Pharmaceuticals in 2001 Examples of Accomplishments: Designed groundbreaking system that measures the activity of voltage-gated ion channels using extracellular electrical field stimulation and voltage-sensitive fluorescent probes (e-VIPR) • Designed 5 position Carousel to allow Electrode sample stimulation, wash, and dry to take place simultaneously. • Designed sample plate lid removal and replacement automation • Designed automation to transfer sample plates from conveyor to robot • Created all mechanical drawings, BOM’s and assembly support documentation Supported design of an automated Piezoelectric Dispensing Robot. • Designed HEPA filter/ionizer system. • Designed containment shields and covers. Designed plate transfer automation around a Zymark Liquid Dispensing Robot • Designed sample plate lid removal and replacement automation • Designed automation to transfer sample plates from conveyor to robot • Created all mechanical drawings, BOM’s and assembly support documentation From May 1998 to August 2001 (3 years 4 months) Mechanical Engineer @ Mechanical Design Engineer I was responsible for Proto-type designs and all supporting documentation of both Home and Institutional weight lifting fitness systems. These responsibilities included the initial design, manufacturing drawings, cut lists, and bill of materials. I was also tasked with creating the User's Manuals and User's Parts Catalogs. The fitness systems varied from a single user station to an institutional design allowing for up to 6 users simultaneously. I was able to help take this company from a small, family owned business to world wide company recognized for their quality work and designs. From February 1990 to January 1998 (8 years)
