On
the Market: EMPLOYMENT PROFILE: (Company) , WI 2002-Present Global
leader in electronic operator interface displays for industrial automation
equipment. Products targeted in
all industrial sectors; automotive, textiles, mining, pulp/paper, food
processing, petrochemical, etc. Design Engineer Responsible
for electromechanical design of industrial Nema 12/4 liquid crystal displays
utilizing Pro/Engineer and Intralink. v Complex new product design from concept to production in record
time. v Incorporated advanced DFMA (design for manufacturer and assembly)
techniques through the use of a complete plastic snap fit product reducing
hardware count to zero. v Created fully surfaced conceptual engineering designs utilizing
advanced surface module in Pro/Engineer. v Redesigned existing product, inventing a fixture for manufacturing,
thereby reducing assembly time by thirty percent. v
Conducted thermal and
NEMA 4 testing quantifying internal package temperature and UL rated seal-ability
of product design. Brooks
Stevens Design,Inc, Grafton, Wisconsin 2001-2002 Progressive
leader in the industrial design/engineering arena featuring flexible,
yet precise methodology with an authentic inventiveness unparalleled in
the engineering field. Design Engineer Supported multiple projects concurrently, utilizing conceptual
design, project and time management and advanced 3D CAD skills (Pro/Engineer,
Solidworks and Rhino) to produce exceptional products. v Design-engineered construction equipment cab within six months
bypassing prototyping stage and generating an extremely satisfied client. v Created complex surface models in Pro/Engineer for majority
of plastic products. v
Processes utilized:
rotational, thermoform and injection/gas assist molding; sheet
metal forming and welding; formed steel extrusions and glass manufacturing. Rockwell Automation-Drives,
Mequon, WI 1997-2001 A
global leading manufacturer of AC/DC industrial motor controlled drives. Senior Technical Analyst Concept,
designed, tested and produced a world class family of industrial AC drives
utilizing advanced design techniques through the optimization of size,
hardware count, successful interface of plastic, aluminum casting and
sheet metal net-shape design on Pro/Engineer ( Advanced surfaces, Pro/Sheetmetal,
Advanced Asm, Pro/Program, Family tables, relations, Pro/process, behavior
modeling). v Invented a unique hinge/latching mechanism allowing zero stacking
and providing access to internal wiring/diagnostic capabilities. v Studied and designed large capacitor bank theory, thermal issues and advanced cooling
solutions, plastic to plastic, plastic to cast aluminum snap fits, industry unique bussing structures connecting
paralleled high amperage drive building blocks. v Promoted three positions and directed up to four designers
responsible for documentation of designs.
v Enhanced design ability through the use of model shop equipment:
vertical end mill, metal shear, break press, finished surface grinder, welding and multitude of hand finishing tools. v Used CMM ( coordinate measuring machine) to generate point cloud and surface data used
to form sheet metal, plastic and casting geometry around purchased parts
such as fans, capacitors, inductors
and etc. v
Collaborated with strategic
manufacturing, tooling and molding vendors early in design cycle to optimize
product design. Nelson Industries,
Stoughton,WI 1997 Senior Mechanical Designer Redesigned
in Pro/Engineer the Buell motorcycle frame and conceptual surfaced designs
and renderings used by sales organization. Ohmeda Corporation, Madison, WI 1996 Studied
and learned Pro/Engineer for two weeks on own time before designing vaporizer
for anesthesia machine, took data from complex 2D drawings of castings,
machined parts, plastics, and sheet
metal revised and modeled in Pro/Engineer. Education: Currently
attending University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee
to achieve a Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering. Mechanical
Design Associate Degree from Madison Area Technical College. Graduated
in May 1996 Grew
up on family dairy farm which instilled commitment to hard work, organization,
strong mechanical aptitude and problem solving.
