Jay O.
Mechanical Engineer. Design Engineer. Project Engineer
I have a passion for Mechanical Engineering, Design & Manufacturing. I love helping people and companies bring their ideas to life! I have over 24 years of mechanical engineering & design experience. My design experience includes designing parts and assemblies for injection molding, punch press, press brake, CNC machining, laser/water jet cutting, & welding. Much of my experience is also designing assemblies for various industries such as Aerial Work Platforms, Machine Tool, Automation & Robotics. I have a background engineering in a fast-paced corporate environment. In that arena, I did design work for companies such as Boeing, Lockheed Martin, Space X, Blue Origin, Ford, GM, Fanuc Robotics and many others. I have created several designs that have been awarded patents (10,724,657; Cable carrier guide, 9,803,721; Hybrid cable carrier chain, 9,722,402; Cable carrier guide, 7,784,259; Monolithic enclosed cable carrier). My work has embodied projects as small as a single part to complex systems containing thousands of parts. In my freelance experience I have worked with (still working with) several established companies and many startups. I have connections with manufacturing in China & the US, so I have been able to move some of those clients into production of their products after designing them. If you are interested in moving your project in that direction, we should talk. Specialties: Mechanical Design, 3D Modeling, FEA Simulation 2D Drawing, 2D to 3D conversion, Product Design, Product Development, Project Management, New Product Development, AutoCAD Administration, SolidWorks Administration, Vault Administration I have licensed seats of SolidWorks Professional, Simulation Professional & AutoCAD.
