I am a product design and development specialist with a background in Mechanical Engineering. I received my degree from Northeastern University in 2011 and, since then, have worked in the medical, robotics, consumer electronics, process valve controller, and elevator device industries. With over 8 years of experience in the iterative product development process, I've gained the experience and skill set necessary - in 3D CAD, model creation, design for manufacturability and assembly, manufacturing expertise, prototyping, test development, project management, and supply chain management - to bring your ideas to life seamlessly and efficiently. No matter what - the scope/size of the project, product, or material - I can help you get it manufactured and into your hands quickly. There are no restrictions or requirements to my service, if you'd like for me to just create the design files then that's not a problem either. Please feel free to contact me with any inquiries. I'm looking forward to working with you. **Resume and design portfolio available upon request**

Stephen J. Cole Results Driven Engineering Professional with a knack for bringing derailed projects back into focus and resurrecting dormant projects to produce profitable product through careful analysis and strategic implementation. Consistently successful in increasing profitability and quality through simplification where feasible, by utilizing the most current technology available and by improvising where traditional methods fall short of achieving the set goal. An uncompromising commitment to product quality and integrity while streamlining the design process through the utilization of solid modeling for design, FEA for performance prediction and rapid prototyping for design substantiation, resulting in high grade products and systems produced well within predetermined margins. Well versed in empirical testing of pre-production products and advanced testing of systems prior to system ATP (Acceptance Test Procedure) to further ensure the final design meets and exceeds performance expectations.

Born in Phoenix, Arizona I was raised with high work ethic imparted by my many family members in the building community. I received my first associated degree from Glendale Community before relocating to New York City. In New York I gained a wide variety of work experiences, in wich, all culminated in a great understanding of the bottom line in any industry. Later in Austin, Texas, I received my second associate degree in Drafting. There I had the opportunity to apply my leadership and problem-solving skills to grow a business. Through Design and pragmatic thinking I was able to gain the experience to design for the lifetime of a product or space. Today I have found myself back in New York continuing my design experiences and process development as I complete my bachelor's degree.
