Administer and support Product Data Management (PDM) systems (IBM DOORS, EWM, RPE, SolidWorks EPDM). Manage user accounts, configure projects and workflows, perform maintenance, troubleshoot issues, support upgrades and deployments, assist enhancements, ensure configuration control and regulatory compliance (DFARS/ITAR), produce technical documentation, and provide end-user training.

Design and review integrated low-voltage security systems (access control, IP video, intrusion, AV, DAS). Prepare drawings, wiring diagrams, construction documents, relay settings, equipment specs, and perform field surveys. Support sales and project teams, test products, deliver technical presentations, and mentor junior designers and engineers.

Lead design and delivery of Ads Policy infrastructure: define architecture, governance, evaluation, and integrations for ad policy enforcement across campaign setup, creative review, serving, and reporting. Drive cross-team technical strategy, build scalable distributed systems, mentor engineers, and ensure operational excellence for production-critical ad systems.

Design, integrate, validate, and optimize large-scale AI networking infrastructure. Lead Layer 3/4 and RDMA-based fabric architecture, performance characterization, congestion management, packet-level debugging, telemetry, automation, and deployment for hyperscale AI training and inference clusters.

Design and analyze aircraft mechanical system modifications (air conditioning, ventilation, waste, oxygen, refrigerant, etc.) using CAD tools. Ensure fit, form, function, FAA compliance, budgets, and schedules. Collaborate with manufacturing, provide engineering guidance, maintain documentation and standards, and support prototype and production processes.

Designs and modifies aircraft interior electrical systems (cabin management, lighting, power, communications). Drafts schematics and wire diagrams, performs load and separation analyses, develops verification/test procedures per FAA, supports installations and root-cause resolution, and coordinates with project engineers and modification facilities to meet schedule and budget.
