• Structural Design Engineer 2 (Manufacturing Role)- Boeing Contract

  • Sep 2021 - Present

  Originally took this contract to support the release of electrical hardware drawings for the VC-25B program (similar to many of my other experiences), but the opportunity came up almost immediately to travel to San Antonio and fulfill an emergent need for shipside manufacturing/planning support. From the months of January to early May, my responsibilities included: - Reviewing work packages and providing build plan input to cross-functional teams - Leveraging my design background to speed up communication between mechanics and liason engineers - Troubleshooting engineering/planning issues and providing solutions that minimize work stoppage - Implementing a pilot program to improve first time quality and reduce non-conformance on bracket hole drilling operations (zones of the build that we covered more than doubled their weekly job sells versus unsupported zones).
