PROFESSIONAL EXPERTISE
General Dynamics C4 Systems, Bloomington, MN 2010 – 2011
Systems Engineer Senior
Staff (Contracting)
·Provided MANPRINT and Safety design guidance to both internal and subcontractor design efforts to ensure Human Factors and Safety design goals and requirements were implemented in the ICS design.
·Presented MANPRINT and Safety status at all design reviews and program milestones, and provided representation at all customer/contractor HFE and Safety working group meetings.
·Developed and maintained system safety data in the Hazard Tracking System (HTS)
·Provided Environmental Engineering and prohibited materials analysis support to the ICS design through analysis of design drawings and specifications, manufacturing processes, Bills of Material (BOM) and subcontractor drawings to ensure the ICS design conformed to Army prohibited materials requirements.
·Provided contractual operational and support requirements decomposition, flowing to the appropriate level a set of requirements that successfully met contractual requirements of the system.
·Provided LMI database development for multiple ICS computer types.
BAE Systems/United
Defense, Fridley, MN 1998 –
2009
Staff Maintainability
Engineer
·Participated in Integrated Product Development Teams (IPT), providing RAM-T, Logistics, HFE and Safety design influence that ensured system concepts and design development met operational and supportability goals and requirements.
·Provided contractual operational and support requirements decomposition, flowing to the appropriate level a set of requirements that successfully met contractual requirements of the system.
·Produced product maintainability and reliability predictions/allocations, giving management, customer, and IPT design leads quantitative assessments on how installations performed against requirements.
·Integrated and supported COTS hardware into MGV design, reducing nonrecurring costs and development time associated with new product development.
·Provided support to Failure Reporting and Corrective Action System (FRACAS), and Failure Review Boards (FRB) meetings, providing critical input to the system reliability growth testing effort.This resulted in a significant increase in system reliability and a corresponding decrease in maintenance costs.
·Produced and documented Failure Modes Effects and Criticality Analysis (FMECA), helping mitigate system abort failures, and used as a framework for development of the logistics maintenance task and testability analysis efforts.
·Developed RFP response, conducted proposal work (technical and cost) and resource planning.
·Managed technical requirements of all subcontractor maintainability efforts and integration of products into overall design providing seamless integration into system level design requirements.
·Participated in execution of Highly Accelerated Life Tests (HALT), on Non Line Of Sight (NLOS) Cannon and Mortar Mission Equipment, using state-of-the-art environmental shaker table and Large Armament Hammer (LAH) that eliminated numerous failure modes, design flaws, and resulted in significant improvement in product reliability.
·Prepared and presented design status results at major program design and milestone reviews, educating customer on project progress and developing path forward for meeting program requirements.
·Presented FCS MGV Concurrent Engineering Design Team (Pit-Stop) success story as part of panel at MARCON 2007 Symposium.
