President Ceo resume example

Notable accomplishments in Materials Science Research and Development: -

I have the formal educational training necessary in metallurgical Engineering of Materials and worked for over 30 years in industry performing aerospace related work as a manufacturing, production, Process Engineer, a Senior Engineer an independent successful engineer consultant to Industries in North America. I have been certified by the State of Colorado Higher Education to developed college level curriculum of instruction and teach college integrated circuit ( IC) fabricated courses : Diffusion processes, Thin film, Ion Implantation, Plasma Etching and the related Safety courses to college students. Beside being an Engineer of Materials Prime Aerospace, , Aeronautics, Automotive, batteries fuel cell, Nuclear, Medical devices, Semiconductor, Power and Propulsion generating Industry. As a successful Research Scientist I have experienced break through, earned awards of European and American grant of patents, I have published cited works in Peers Reviewed Journals, presented invited Technical Seminars to Industries, Colorado School of Mines Postgraduate Engineering Students and Faculties and at international Conference Proceedings, in Cincinnati, Ohio , to name a few. The rest of my work experience are documented elsewhere in my resume making qualified to perform the work that I am currently applying for.

1.At the University of Birmingham, Edgbaston Birmingham England, where I studied, I developed a world first small type electrochemical cell capable of use for electro-depositing coherent binary, ternary or quaternary alloy films of intermediate at weight % metal composition on the aluminum, stainless steel or titanium substrate from aqueous solution of simple salt without the use of metalloids of cyanide.

(a)Designed and invented a novel electrochemical cell used for electrochemical studies of kinetics and thermodynamic reactions of metal/alloy deposition containing intermediate binary, Ternary or quaternary alloys composition of intermediate from aqueous solution and explained the phenomenon of anomalous behavior of metal alloy films during certain times of electro-deposition process.

(b) I had successfully developed novel slurry paste made up of metal-polymer alloy composites incorporated with organic plasticizers and dispersants grade of grade of polymers electrodes suitable for secondary rechargeable porous battery for aerospace and space missions.

2.At Colson Caster Corporation: I successfully formulated and applied a novel chemical solution used by Colson Caster Corporation for neutralization of stubborn toxic fume pollution from the Oil quenching Metal Heat Treating media in the Work Shop, to comply with the OSHA regulation.

3.At Alcoa Howmet Power and Propulsion in White Hall, MI, My first project was to lead the Engineering group in vacuum furnace heat treatment and Brazing processes. The furnaces were known arch, improper brazing, Heat treatment, compromised brazing atmospheric condition, improper temperature spread as noticed during the temperature uniformity survey. The condensed outgas organic and inorganic species (sublimation) on reversal formed on the cold graphite vacuum furnace walls/heating elements eroding them. Introduction of argon atmosphere into the vacuum furnace caused felled back on the aerospace brazed or heat treated components in the Inconel heat treat basket causing localized eutectic melting on the parts causing million of nonconformance products that could not be reworked. I had explained the above and that the chemical reaction was a natural surface phenomena particularly if the work was done in hard vacuum or a vacuum atmospheric that was lower than the vapor pressure of the out gas materials. For mitigation, I suggested that, unless; it was specified by the customer, adequate vacuum pressure should be used and periodic PM schedule for maintaining the furnace be initiated and maintained. These was adopted by the company and upon implementation lengthened the shelf life expectation of the furnaces, increased product throughput, eliminated scrap generation, reworks improved product quality for airworthiness applications, enhanced on time product shipments to customers making them happy and with the potential of saving the company over 1 million dollars; per year.

4.At GE –I was the lead Aerospace specialist Engineer who successfully led the company to vacuum braze aerospace back-shell assemblies, the ceramic metal igniter components and the metal – alumina otherwise known as metal to glass interface fusion (brazing) from vacuum furnace for aerospace hermetically Sealed Sensor development program. I rewrote the brazing instructions, defined the inter metal diameter clearance to enhance capillary action flows of the filler metal to 80% required braze diffusion bonding penetration depth.

5.Eagle Picher Industries Inc., Designed and participated in the R&D supported for Eagle-Picher Industries Inc., in the selection of critical polymer-metal powder composite chemistries used in developing recharge able Ni-Cad, Nickel –Iron (Ni-Fe-H2) hydrogen, Ni/Fe and Lithium thionyl chloride (ALTC) power battery successfully developed for NASA Space Flight Missions Program, dual shaft electric propulsion vehicle and unique artillery applications. In collaboration with our Team at Eagle Picher in Colorado Springs, Colorado, DOW Chemicals supplied the raw polymer materials supplies for the battery development project whilst Sandia National Laboratories and Argonne National Laboratory (ANL) tested the porous battery cells conduction. The Nickel-Cadmium (Ni-Cd) rechargeable battery developed was responsible for supplying power to the magnetosphere probe used for NASA’s IMAGE Space Craft. This power-producer (Ni-Cad) will operate when the probe is in darkness. Otherwise, the probe operates on solar power while the battery is recharging in space.

6.(c) One of the achievements I experienced at the above company, was that in collaboration with Dow Chemical Company in Michigan, I designed and successfully applied some novel slurry pastes compound made up of metal-polymer alloy composites incorporated with organic plasticizers, and dispersants suitable for an Aerospace-secondary rechargeable porous advanced battery electrodes. The Battery’s power output was tested by The Sandia National Laboratory and found to be an improved advanced satellite battery fuel cell.
