Work History

Program Manager

4 Years 3 Months
American Fabricated Products | 05.2022 - Current

As the program manager my daily task is to oversee every job that goes to the floor. Review prints and CAD models to verify accuracy and completeness. Creat parts using SolidWorks from prints that were not provided. i create DXF files and program the lasers along with making sure that the brake press department has the prints they need to make the parts right the first time.

make order sheets for any material that needs to be ordered or hardware needed for the assembly.

In constant communication with the customers to address any issues or questions with the parts, also keeping them up to date on the progress and delivery schedule.

i design all CNC fixtures and Weld Fixtures needed to hold and make the required parts.

using Solidworks, bystronic and pro nest for the plasma cutter i create simple or complex fixtures depending on the complexity of the part. order all hardware needed along with making prints,cad and plasma/laser programs to complete the fixtures.

By following the jobs through each department i see the jobs from start to finish and help brainstorm with each department to complete the jobs right and on time. This has allowed me to learn and grow in my knowledge in other departments other then CNC. Including Welding, brake Press, laser and Plasma along with how the front office operates.

  • I programed and set up a Mazak 5-axes CNC Machine. I do complete die jobs to single one off parts with very tight tolerances of .0005 inches. Hard cutting D2 to flying through aluminum there's not much I haven't machined. I currently program off of ESPRIT using the 3 plus 2 axes software for the 5 axes machine. I'm given a job with the data and blueprints then I take care of the rest from there ending up with a completed part all deburred and ready for the customer.
