VALIDATION ENGINEER / PROJECT ENGINEER

• Aug 2006 - May 2008

Characterized and designed reactors based on the required power delivery and identified the ideal operating conditions (temperature, pressure and fuel concentration) and the ideal catalyst for various power applications. Executed standard operating procedures (SOPs) for various products Selected appropriate parts (pressure transducers, gauges and flow controllers), built and ran breadboards to test concepts prior to prototyping, followed by troubleshooting, assembling and operating different prototypes. Using the results, possible recommendation of product and technology direction were madeWorked closely with control engineer to write and test controller algorithm for various systemsExperienced in operating and troubleshooting data acquisition (Lab-View and RS-Logics)Managed and maintained relationships with outside suppliers, contractors and customers along with the supervision of technicians and colleagues to meet our projects dead-linesSubmitted 3 invention disclosures for patent applications covering improvements to the fuel cartridge performance and energy density of the system. Involved in Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA) and Under Writing Laboratories (UL) documentation preparation for product launch
