Working as a Senior Metallurgist in a UKAS, BS EN ISO 17025 accredited Laboratory, for Babcock International Group. Responsibilities include; raw material testing, quality assurance, weld assessment and qualification, failure investigations, quality control, document review and materials advice and consultancy. Specialisms include weld engineering, quality assurance, fastener technology, material testing and characterisation and the reverse engineering. I graduated from the University of Sheffield in 2020 with a First Class Honours Degree in Materials Science and Engineering (Biomaterials) MEng. I am a highly ambitious and dedicated individual and I am currently working towards achieving Chartered Engineer status with the Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining.
Undertook a summer placement as an engineer in the quality assurance department at Pegler Yorkshire. I performed a project looking at improving the manufacturing process of TRV wax elements and reducing wastage in production. The project involved both process engineering and quality control. I undertook training in six sigma principles including lean and process mapping in order to better understand the manufacturing process. Project management alongside engineering skills were required for this placement. A report was produced outlining the findings of the project and handed over to continue the improvement process at the end of my placement.
