OBJECTIVE Lead a group of engineers and obtain a level IV engineer position in the areas of product development / product support with emphasis on the design and analysis of mechanical systems. PROFESSIONAL HISTORY BOEING Engineer, level III (Refueling Support Systems) 8/2007 - Present BOEING, IDS, Wichita, KS Provide stress support for the KC-135 spares group in the areas of fuselage, wing, tail and refueling boom. Respond to diverse engineering tasks related to fabrication tags, part or material substitutions, engineering assistance on design changes. Spirit AeroSystems (fuselage supplier to Boeing), Lead Engineer, level III 6/2006 - 8/2007 Wichita, KS, 767/777 Section 41-Sustaining Group Approve and review repair proposals for the primary fuselage structure on 767 and 777 airplanes. Structural analysis includes static, fatigue and damage tolerance substantiation for skin, stringers, frames, floor beams and bulkheads that conform to Boeing and FAA regulations. Provide technical support to design group based on new design changes and modifications. BOEING Engineer, level III (Structural Technology Group) 9/2004 - 5/2006 BOEING, commercial, Wichita, KS, 737-900X Section 44 Create strength check notes (SCN) to validate new structural design and resubstantiate existing structure for the mid section fuselage of the 737-900ER airplane. Sign off new design drawings and communicate to designers any structural changes in order to conform with the ultimate and fatigue analysis. 4/2004 - 9/2004 BOEING, commercial, Wichita, KS, 767 Section 41 Respond to customer telexes and support 767 repair requests. Determine structural integrity of aircraft structural assemblies and its related components for the front fuselage of the airplane. 4/2003 - 4/2004 BOEING, military, Wichita, KS, 767 Section 45 Review design drawings and submit relevant stress and structural analysis according to load paths and load distributions. Develop standard analytical calculations using classical hand computations to support the finite element analysis. July 1999 - Feb 2002 Mechanical Engineer (design & analysis) ASML, Thermal Systems, Orange, CA - Performed design-engineering tasks including process development and integration, equipment evaluation and design modification for the semi conductor wafer processing technology (low volume production and each machine has its own customer unique specification in terms of process and configuration). - Electronic packaging and proper sizing of external vendor equipment according to its optimum location and functionality. - Prepared layouts and released engineering drawings related to the machine's primary and secondary systems such as gas delivery system, vacuum, pneumatic assembly, wafer automation handling system and machine's structural assembly (frame and panels). - Participated in design meetings and technical problem solving sessions. - Improved existing product by increasing its reliability and decreasing its maintenance requirements. - Reduced mechanical assembly cost by identifying and acquiring generic components.
