As a Lead Robotics Manufacturing Engineer at Hamilton Company, I provide group support for all four robotic product lines and was responsible for the NIMBUS product line. My achievements include:

• Designing and implementing C# programs to upload technical data from local machines to a SQL server, which was accessible via Power BI integration for data analysis.
• Developing an Access database for product rework that enabled failure trending analysis.
• Conducting time studies and kaizen analyses for STAR and MLPREP instruments, which resulted in increased efficiency and decreased lead times.
• Insourced new products for manufacturing, including BoM creation, process assembly instruction, and functional testing using macros.
• Developing 3D printed tools using PTC Creo for production aid.
• Introducing new quality testing procedures based on collaborative PFMEAs.
