Objective & Background:

Interned at GE Aviation manufacturing plant in Hooksett New Hampshire. I worked as a part of the quality engineering team in the Blisk department.

Roles & Responsibilities:

- Worked with operators in the shop in observing and inspecting defected parts and performing root cause analysis

- Worked with manufacturing and design engineering teams in conducting priority part reviews where all teams would work together and fully inspect the manufacturing of a certain part

- Participated in shop-walks where inspections of all stages of the manufacturing process would occur

- Assisted in conducting monthly inventory and kept track of parts and their respective defects

- Participated in daily engineering team meeting where daily events and priorities would be discussed

- Analyzed part drawings utilizing GD & T principles

- Participated in LEAN manufacturing meetings where shop efficiency and workflow was analyzed and potential improvements would be suggested to improve efficiency and decrease costs

Accomplishments:

Digitized Part Heat-Map

- Designed and developed a heat map that would allow the operators at different stages of the manufacturing process to highlight the location and type of defect

- Wrote Python code to digitize this project and allow the data to be stored in an Excel sheet so that overtime the defects and their respective locations can be tracked

- Designed this in such a way so that it can be utilized for any part

NX

- Learned how to use NX CAD software

- Learned how to import existing parts and perform many different types of analysis on the part

- Participated in designing new parts and altering existing part designs to improve them

Customer Returns

- Designed and implemented a section of the plant that would contain all of the customer returns in an organized manner

- Analyzed patterns in whcih parts would be returned and why and then used this data to perform root cause analysis

- Built the area in the plant and organized all of the existing returns
