What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation, teamwork, and continuous improvement in manufacturing processes.

I am a dedicated Mechanical Engineer with a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering from UCLA. My professional journey began at America Powertech Automation Technology Co., Ltd, where I played a pivotal role in designing and testing a microwave foaming earplug production line for Honeywell. My responsibilities included fine-tuning the production line, conducting experiments, and resolving malfunctions in critical systems. I also authored comprehensive instruction manuals and led training sessions for operators and engineers, ensuring they were well-equipped to maintain and troubleshoot the systems.

Currently, I serve as a Manufacturing Process Engineer at Pactiv Evergreen, where I manage the PET product manufacturing process across 14 production lines. My focus is on optimizing performance and efficiency, leading a team of over 30 technicians, and implementing continuous improvement strategies that have increased overall equipment effectiveness by 7%. I thrive in collaborative environments and am passionate about driving innovation and enhancing production capabilities.
