  • Addressed delays in obtaining critical components for urgent repairs by leveraging Fed Log to identify alternate suppliers and available stock, securing components 20% faster and ensuring timely maintenance of essential equipment.
  • Overcame challenges in identifying replacement parts for obsolete electronic equipment by utilizing Fed Log to cross-reference and identify compatible components, reducing repair times by 30% and enhancing equipment uptime by 20%.
  • Eliminated bottlenecks in the assembly line by applying LEAN techniques to streamline workflow, reallocating resources, and removing unnecessary steps, resulting in a 25% decrease in project lead times and faster delivery of AVQ - 20's.
  • Reduced inventory costs by 15% by adopting LEAN inventory management practices, implementing a just-in-time (JIT) system to minimize overstocking of seldom-used components, and decreased excess stock by 20%, freeing up valuable storage space.
  • Iead a continuous process improvement with quality assurance that identified and eliminated inefficiencies on technical orders for the F -15 C Model HUD's, boosting productivity by 25% and reducing waste by 30%.
  • Difficulty in identifying potential issues such as part obsolescence, shortages, and lifecycle risks, leading to supply chain disruptions. Leveraged BOM analysis to proactively identify and flag components at risk of obsolescence, shortages, or nearing the end of their lifecycle for the AVQ-20. Integrated this information into the procurement process to prioritize securing critical components and identifying suitable alternatives. Streamlined procurement, reducing the risk of supply chain interruptions by 30%, ensuring continuous production, and mitigating lifecycle-related risks.
  • Performed internal assessment of workload requirements to include but not limited to
    classification levels, electrostatic discharge (ESD), tester, tooling, technical data, software, chemicals, and space requirements.
  • Conducted thorough reviews of BOMs to identify potential issues such as part obsolescence, shortages, and lifecycle risks.
  • Skill to modify systems by adding, altering or removing components to standardize or alter the purpose of the equipment or to incorporate new features developed since the equipment was manufactured using proper tech data.
  • Ability to apply LEAN, safety, security and health principles, practices and procedures and to understand and apply internal management procedures.
  • Developing maintenance standards and procedures for use by others.
  • Ability to analyze repair practices and develop procedural instructions for use by others on methods and steps to repair equipment using the proper tech data.
  • Experienced in performing the installation of complex systems and associated facilities, dealing with contractors, and the need to modify equipment.
  • Communicate information clearly in individual or group settings.
  • Consistently updated program managers, engineers, schedulers and other stakeholders on status of work projects by communicating effectively.
  • Coordinated with analysts; reported to management daily and performed inventory duties on all equipment.
  • Executed updated modifications to AVQ-20 (Baby HUD) F-15 Aircraft, including electrical components, wiring harnesses, coax cables, relays, switches, plugs, connectors, support equipment, and conducted continuity checks to systems.
  • Tested, calibrated, and sold Heads-Up Display Units, ensuring optimal symbology and brightness performance.
  • Used the LEAN process to cut down on the amount of time to disassemble C HUD by performing each step required in the most efficient order.
  • Resolved a technical data discrepancy that hindered testing procedures by completing AFTO Form 22 via the Enhanced Technical Information Management System (ETIMS), detailing corrective actions. Ensured accurate Unit Under Test (UUT) hookup instructions, enhancing training and follow-through for all personnel.
  • Prioritized own work and effectively planned tasks and determined appropriate steps and actions necessary to complete the job.
  • Accurately interpreted specifications, schematics, block diagrams, and technical orders in diagnosing problems in equipment and systems.
  • Researched aircraft modification history, technical orders, engineering change proposals and manuals concerning wiring codes, wiring configuration and testing procedures
  • Assisted engineering personnel in developing modifications and changes on electrical, avionics, and other integrated electrical systems by filing AFMC Form 202.
  • Made effective use of available work time to accomplish assigned testing tasks.
  • Insured work performed met the quality standards established by the organization.
  • Utilized safety practices and procedures following established safety rules and regulations and maintained a safe and clean work environment.
  • Complied with security regulations, directives, and policies.
  • Used daily tool control and assured proper fit of required safety equipment and clothing.
  • Performed clean-up duties such as cleaning equipment, sweeping, straightening and lining up tools and other property in the assigned areas.
  • Consistently operated equipment in a safe manner, applying established safety rules and regulations to minimize minor violations and to avoid major violations due to employee error or negligence.
  • Ensured tools were properly marked, calibrated, and secured when area was unattended and reported any lost tools in accordance with applicable procedures.
  • Routinely ensured the tool inventory log was properly signed in accordance with established procedures and assigned equipment, special precision tools and materials were handled, stored and protected correctly.
  • Accurately and on recurring basis, certified work processes assigned to perform.
  • Successfully completed any classroom training required to be certified on assigned tasks.
  • Demonstrated positive support and worked with employees, superiors and peers to establish and maintain our reputation as a quality organization.
  • Demonstrated sensitivity and responsiveness to needs and requirements of both internal and external customers.
  • Adhered to and promoted all safety, security, fire and health regulations established for the work area to include rules, regulations and procedures governing foreign object damage.
  • Trained other technicians in the use of specialized diagnostic tools and software programs.
  • Utilized Fed Log to research and analyze supply items, including National Stock Numbers (NSNs), item names (approved and non-approved), manufacturer and distributor data, part numbers, freight information, hazardous material indicators, interchangeability and substitution data, Acquisition Advice Codes (AACs), and unit pricing.
  • Expertly utilized LDMS, LDMS Exec View, TAA, TSS/PAC, PAD (Score Card, PAWS rankings for priority work), ATACS, TED, EIMC, ETIMS, BOM, FED Log, JIT, and EWCD to streamline operations, manage data, and prioritize tasks effectively.
  • Conducted thorough reviews of BOMs to identify potential issues such as part obsolescence, shortages, and lifecycle risks.
