• Manufacturing Engineer Co-Op

  • Jan 2019 - Aug 2019

  Worked on the GE9X fuel-nozzle assembly line with a diverse team engineering and operators. Fuel nozzle components in this assembly line are used in GE's (General Electric) most fuel-efficient jet engine ever produced on a per-pound of thrust basis (GE9X Engine). This specific engine model was designed for the Boeing 777x airplane which will be the world's largest and most fuel-efficient twin-engine jet ever built. Key Projects: Led and collaborated with a multidisciplinary team of engineers and operators, to fix a quality control problem on GE9X PPM valves. My work here ended up saving the company thousands of dollars by greatly reducing the defect rates of PPM spools. As a result, I was able to increase the rate of the first-time yield in GE9X fuel-nozzle PPM valves and ensure on-time delivery to our customers. Collected and used GE9X support fuel-flow data to improve automated test stand ATP tests for our customers and the operators. This action increased the first-time yield rate for GE9X PPM valves and greatly reduced acceptance testing time. As a result, the company was able to meet vital shipment dates that the customer requested. Daily Tasks Included: - Updating operator work instructions to reflect current manufacturing operations - Updating production drawings in Creo 5.0 and properly document engineering changes - Ergonomically assess and improve work stations without hindering the overall process - Run ATP testing on GE9X Engine fuel nozzles to meet customer requirements - Design or modify testing fixtures for improved operator use - Help troubleshoot problems within the manufacturing process Show less

  Each year, teams of high school students, coaches, and mentors work during a six-week period to build game-playing robots that weigh up to 120 pounds. Robots complete tasks such as scoring balls into goals, flying discs into goals, inner tubes onto racks, hanging on bars, and balancing robots on balance beams. The game changes yearly, keeping the excitement fresh and giving each team a more level playing field. While teams are given a standard set of parts, they are also allowed a budget and encouraged to buy or make specialized parts. Show less
