Experience

Carrier

Charlotte, North Carolina · United States

Electrical Engineer

Mar 2022 - now

  • Updated electrical schematics and component schedules for industrial chiller control panels, reconciling motor interfaces and supplier ratings before a cross-functional design review; resolved inconsistent drawing revisions before manufacturing used the release package.
  • Organized lab validation records and a code compliance checklist for the revised panel, linking test observations to requirements and reviewer dispositions; kept unresolved findings visible as release conditions instead of treating a completed test as approval.
  • Checked load schedules, protective-device ratings and wiring diagrams together, investigated a test failure at the panel, and updated the controlled schematic after verification.
  • Owned lab validation using electrical schematics and measured waveforms, resolved a grounding fault and completed code-compliance evidence for design review.
  • Published manufacturing test specifications using calibrated instruments, reduced repeated wiring defects by 23% in the next pilot build and retained the validation records.

Milwaukee · United States

Electrical Engineer

Jan 2019 - Feb 2022

  • Reviewed panel change requests against DFMEA items and documented the affected drawings and verification owners; made the review scope explicit before procurement ordered replacement components.
  • Checked a revised work instruction against the drawing and test method, observed its use on the equipment, and corrected a measurement ambiguity before approving the revision.
  • Compared an out-of-tolerance measurement with the instrument’s calibration status and the specified setup, repeated the test after correcting the fixture, and kept the raw readings with the engineering disposition.

Selected project

Sustaining design change review

Project owner

Feb 2024 - Jun 2024

  • Consolidated field troubleshooting observations with service and manufacturing teams. linked the sustaining design correction to a reviewed reproduction case and revision history.
  • Used Control panels and Design reviews to compare the source record with the proposed result; documented exceptions, the reviewer, and the acceptance decision before handoff.
  • Built a training inspection sheet from public specifications and synthetic measurement results; separated instrument variation from an out-of-tolerance condition and kept the measurement method beside each reading.
  • Compared a proposed process change with the original setup, documented the drawing or instruction revision affected, and wrote an acceptance checklist that required repeatable evidence before recommending release.
  • Owned the bench validation using the original failure conditions, resolved a specification mismatch and completed a traceable test record with calibrated measurement references.
