Damper Diagnostics & Root-Cause Analysis: Performed systematic teardowns and diagnostics on RPSD, BPSD, and Normal positions of Multimatic\'s DSSV (position-sensitive) dampers, isolating failures in the valve stacks and internal components and developing corrective solutions. End-of-Line Vision Inspection: Improved end-of-line pass rate by 11% on the Keyence vision inspection system by reducing measurement variance through parameter tuning and tooling chnages, enabling more parts to reach the customer without sacrificing quality thresholds. Operator Reduction: Developed and implemented a process redesign targeting the elimination of one operator position from an assembly line; project nearing confirmation with an estimated labour cost saving of ~$1.5M over the 8-year program life. Hardware Build & Validation: Built and validated production damper assemblies to specification using quality measurement tools; recorded and assessed breakaway torque, residual torque, and press forces to verify components met tolerance and performance requirements. Custom Tooling & Process Improvement: Designed and fabricated custom tooling to improve assembly ergonomics and reduce cycle time, applying systematic problem-solving to hardware constraints. Work Instructions & Cycle Time Studies: Authored standardized work instructions across multiple assembly lines and conducted cycle time studies to identify bottlenecks and support continuous improvement.
