EXPERIENCE
Edgewood Chemical and Biological Center (ECBC), Electrical Engineering Student Contractor May 2015 – Present
Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD
 As a member of the Advanced Design and Manufacturing Division, participated in several multi-disciplinary
product development teams including the roles of electrical engineer and task lead.
 Effectively managed a project task focusing on mechanical design, manufacturing, on-time delivery, and allocation
of funds.
 Participated in meetings ranging from proposaldevelopment, preliminary design reviews, and ad hoc project
progress reviews.
 Developed in-depth focus on printed circuit board (PCB) and schematic design using Altium Designer. Created
schematic symbols and PCB footprints and managed schematic and PCB libraries.
 Performed quality assurance of design data required for drawings and procurement packages prior to formal design
reviews with project team. This included PCB and schematic layouts and details, dimensions, tolerances, bill of
materials, and specifications.
 Conducted internal design reviews with project team members to verify consistency with component placement,
board layers, and signal routing. Confirmed the parameters met all technical requirements and process capabilities.
 Proficient with soldering through-hole and surface mount connectors or components. Hand-soldered as small as
0402 surface mount components. Performed quality control checks and verified integrity of soldered components
and traces on a PCB using a multimeter, checking for discontinuity.
 Competent in cable manufacturing and quality control processes including wire-to-wire soldering, wire-to-connector
soldering, crimping, heat shrink tubing, stress-leveltesting, and pinout discontinuity checks.
 Instructed multiple hands-on courses at ECBC introducing basic topics ranging from antenna theory and
implementation of an Antenna Tester, to Arduino microcontroller fundamentals including basic board functions,
Arduino coding operations, and basic circuit design.
