Professional Experience
11/2006 to Current
Senior Space Systems Design EngineerSafran Group – Santa Rosa, CA,
Prepare and review engineering plans, specifications, project schedules, designs, circuit diagrams, and estimates for all projects.
Manage real-time failure contingency process during launch anomalies to ensure successful recovery of satellite lifetimes.
Collaborate with multidisciplinary engineering teams to design structural modifications of aircraft and systems. Engineer structural modifications for the following: XM Radio, IntelSat, Asia Sat, Siruis, Optus, Spain Sat and numerous other satellites.
Use 2D CAD modeling tools to design and improve systems meeting FAA standards; communicate with regulatory authorities for approvals on design deviations.
Create drawing time-lines, instructions, specifications and documentation for programs and equipment, devices and parts for commercial systems.
Prepare technical reports summarizing work performed and results.
Perform thorough data and ECO (engineering change order) review and demonstrate follow-through on issues.
Analyze interconnects for system reliability as inputs are collected and verify them against the intended design.
Manage work-flow of 10 member engineering team.
01/2004 to 11/2006
Senior Research and Development EngineerPolar Tank – Gatesville, TX,
Conceived solutions to improve high resolution analog measurements and increase production quality.
Contributed to increased throughput by rapidly diagnosing and correcting issues that impacted baseline performance.
Planned development of integrated schematics for satellite programs.
Managed efforts of all part-time and temporary support staff required to produce large volume schematics.
Created drawings using OrCAD Capture and maintained control of revisions.
Interacted with STE, VE, Database, and Harness Engineering to facilitate S/C integration and integrity of documentation.
Assessed integrity /interplay of database, wirelists, ICDs, ECOs, and STIRs during schematics development.
Managed design reviews of new harness, wirelists, and schematics engineering tools and provided assessment with respect to program adoption.
05/2000 to 01/2004
Senior Design EngineerSpace Systems/Loral – City, STATE,
Planned the process of troubleshooting, safety measures, data escalation and observation of system operations to ensure compliance.
Researched new methodologies and developed new procedures to apply principles of electrical theories to the projects.
Planned schedules for release of schematic books and assisted in cost estimates for schematic development.
Collected basic data (thermistor and heater lists, ICDs, SCE tray stack, block diagrams, etc.) and prepared schematic layouts for all subsystems (Comm, Power, ADCS, SCE, Mechanisms and Thermal).
Reviewed ICDs and developed functional circuit representations for schematics.
Incorporated database and wirelist information into layouts.
Analyzed layouts for design errors (wiring and database errors) and informed appropriate group when corrective action was necessary for ECO generation.
Analyzed ECOs and determined required changes to the schematics across appropriate programs.
08/1997 to 05/2000
Design EngineerSpace Systems/Loral – City, STATE,
Performed highly specialized design, research, and analysis on a project-by-project basis.
