EXPERIENCE
Project Engineer II: ABC Company, Anywhere, USA (1995-1998).
Given regular increases in responsibility for my efforts; managed up to four staff.
* Project leader on design and development of motor components for cryogenic refrigeration unit. Used CFD program to simulate fluid flow problems in vane motors.
* Applied geometric dimensioning and tolerancing to manufacture of components; did stress analysis on components using finite element software. Did performance and endurance tests on motors; analyzed cause of failure in components due to fatigue.
* Documented assembly and test procedures for motors. Did prototype build and bill of material documentation for motors.
* Improved motor efficiency by 40%. Awarded for my efforts.
* Also worked with R&D team on heat exchanger design and performance analysis. Improved efficiency by 30%.
* Worked on third project, involving conventional refrigeration system. Optimized system balance and helped build prototype.
* Manager noted my engineering abilities, and knowledge of design and analysis.
* Built liquid CO2 tank fill station (patent pending).
Research Assistant: University of Anywhere, Anywhere, USA (1992-1995).
Worked in Heat Transfer Division of Mechanical Engineering Department.
* Main project studied boiling heat transfer performance. Also designed and constructed test facility to conduct study. Wrote software program in C for instrumentation. Presented successful findings at National Heat Transfer Conference.
* Budgeted time and resources to work as Teaching Assistant. Held office hours, led classes and graded exams/homework for thermodynamics class.
