2026 — Present
Unified Door and Hardware
Manufacturing Layout Engineer · Listing
I turn a set of drawings into steel. That means reading architectural and shop drawings, measuring off the CAD, and specifying where every piece of hardware preps into the door or frame, then feeding all of it into the system that generates the machine programs for the bending and cut-out operations. Hollow metal doors and frames, opening by opening. Every prep has to be right before anything is released, because a wrong dimension isn’t caught by software further down the line — it’s caught in fabricated steel.
Key work
- Picked the listing software up fast enough that I now train new hires on the workflow.
- Built the department head an error-tracking tool: Python reads the shared mailbox, tells a genuine job-release mistake from a follow-up reply, and keeps one row per incident in a live workbook. It replaced a weekly report that was being put together by hand.
