As a Design Engineer in Mobile Satellite Products I was task with concept, design and implementation of many different projects that eventually moved into production. I typically develop the concept, research, and develop the product through procurement of all components in the design. My skills include: Mechanical Concept and Design using 3D CAD Software (Onshape) Electrical Design down to PCB Schematic and Layout (Kicad) Metal, Plastic, Injection Molding, 3D Printing, and Rubber Design. Sourcing and Purchasing components, tools, Fabrication. Manufacturing processes, floor layout, and tools and fixtures. Developing manufacturing processes for both cost and efficiency. Web Search, MS Word, MS Excel I can take any concept from napkin sketches to production release. My skills in both mechanical and electronic design and understanding of MPU/MCU functionality allow much shorter development times with fewer team members in a project. I do not write firmware or any other software for projects but am able to direct and functionalize how the code needs to be written. I have worked with several other Software Programmers on Upwork. I usually source all components during design and have used both US and international suppliers. I understand purchasing and scheduling and the need to buy at the best pricing.
