Qualified Positions

I have 3 years of experience setting up, maintaining, and operating HaaS 3 and 4 axis Mills with the NGC control, Milltronics 3 axis mills with the Centurion 5,6,7,8 controls, and experience with other powered equipment often seen in a CNC manufacturing facility, such as lathes, band saws, drill presses, table saws, etc.

I have had experience operating many types of forklifts as well, from 20 foot tall diesel CATs in the arctic North Slope, to Amazon's high-tech battery powered 40-ft lifting capacity PITs, to smaller propane and gasoline forklifts.

 With the technical experience necessary to  perform advanced digital forensics exfiltration, I am ideally positioned to excel in today's world of increasing white-collar crime.    I have also attended professional seminars on criminal forensics including material on blood-spatter analyses and forensic pathology.

I'm not afraid of heights, and I have a healthy respect for high voltages!  In today's high-tech environment, and with aging electrical infrastructure, I understand the importance of keeping our electrical infrastructure well-maintained and quickly replacing any failed components.

The first job I had in this field was working for Peak Oilfield Services (the company that builds the ice-roads on the artic slope every winter); I was an inventory and logistics specialist in their heavy machinery warehouse.

A few years later, after moving to a different state for a family emergency, I started work at an Amazon Fulfillment Center.   At first, I was a temporary employee in the second-lowest pay grade.   But I earned myself a promotion approximately every six months, until I reached a position 3 years into my Amazon career at about the highest wage compensation of any of the hourly employees. I eventually learned every process in the building from Receiving, to Inventory Control, Quality Assurance,  Internal Safety Auditing (where I served as elected chairperson of the Safety Committee for two years), Lean Process Design, Reverse Logistics, Packing, Shipping, and finally Outbound Logistics.

My highest position at Amazon was called a Flow Coordinator, leveraging on-the-job training in project management, and bringing my Excel skills to the fore to manage shifts of up to 2,000 line workers in over 12 processes.   I worked with each department manager, as well as senior and regional management, to ensure proper communication within each department in the building,    If I discovered a department didn't have enough workers to keep up with the volume demanded by the day's logistics, for instance, I would request a temporary labor move to maximize plant throughput.    I was also in charge of monitoring conveyance and order status to ensure product continued moving and did not get lost.

This position required a ton of initiative, and the ability to handle the stress of multiple critical deadlines per shift.   As I shared personal responsibility for the financial performance of the whole building during my shift, I would often have to make a decision to leave my workstation and clear a conveyance jam before it became dangerous and expensive, as the maintenance department required a  detailed ticket to be submitted before they would arrive to fix a problem.   Of course, I would delegate the creation of the ticket to someone first.

I would have continued working in this position indefinitely, if it weren't for the plant's closure (due to increased compliance and utility costs, as well as company-wide macroeconomic changes).
