Robert Scott Green
Cloud Engineer
About
Ex-Mechanical engineer turned Information Technology. I have always had a passion for Tech and Programming; eventually swapping careers for it. Now, I bring a unique skillset and perspective upon Technical Infrastructure thanks to my experience in Design and Manufacturing.
Work Experience
Cloud Infrastructure Analyst
Daily/on-call AWS Cloud Ops support for Glue, S3, EC2, EMR, Lambda, and IAM. Autonomy to detect and build out solutions for optimizing cost and infrastructure.
Highlights
- Re-designed the Data Lake's EMR Cluster's Domain Name Service protocol to reduce on-call incidents by 80%.
- Built a monthly Glue Job analysis pipeline to gather config and run data for anomaly detection and cost analysis.
- Designed a Glue Job Metrics analysis script which scans last x job run metrics to offer optimization suggestions such as efficient worker config or code changes (I/O detection).
- Go-to SME for Glue support for various teams.
- Lakeformation/Data Mesh adoption operations support.
- $700k annual cost-savings in Continuous Improvements (and counting).
Raytheon ELCAN Optical Technologies
April 2019 – August 2022
Opto-mechanical Design Engineer
Designed, prototyped, tested, managed, and supervised assembly of areospace and military optical products from craddle to grave.
Highlights
- Lead the design, build and testing of a multi-waveband modern theodolite.
- Spearheaded an in-depth investigation of a legacy program's 70% re-work rate and reduced it to the expected 3% which doubled profits.
- Full product RSS tolerance stack analysis and applications using CodeV optical data.
- Professional Autodesk Inventor user utilizing iLogic scripts and parameter driven design to increase design efficiency.
- CAD system administrator & developed company's Design Standards utilizing iLogic to automate and enforce standardization; reduced initial design phase lead-time by ~50%.
- Developed iLogic program to convert optical zoom positional data into accurate parametric models of smoothed barrel CAM paths for rifle sights; reduced lead-time of rifle scope initial design to successful prototype by 95%.
- Developed iLogic program to convert CodeV optical designs into native Autodesk Inventor files; setting up tolerances, parameters, and key layout data to kick-start the design phase; reduced human error between departments by 100%.
Advanced Manufacturing Engineer
Managed and engineered the layout, process, and integration of new assembly/weld equipment into the facility.
Highlights
- Designed test/weld/assembly fixtures, pre-production prototypes, wire bending cells, racking/conveyor systems, and other R&D components for manufacturing work cells using SolidWorks as primary CAD software.
- Common: RFQ's, PFMEA's, DoE's, Takt-time layouts, robotic weld programming, and hands-on installation of equipment.
- Built a Solidworks VBA program to generate component/product in/out racking systems based on takt-time. Script created full BoM, cut-lengths, and assembly instructions and eliminated the need for a co-op position.
Western University
January 2017 – May 2017
1st Year University Instructor
Primary instructor for two sections (256 students) of ES1036 - Programming Fundamentals for Engineers.
Highlights
- Partially re-designed the course using modern tools: online generative quizes (upgrade from paper), end of lecture knowledge games, and game-design based assignments.
- Received teacher evaluation score of 83.4%
Western University
September 2014 – October 2016
Graduate Teaching Assistant
Teaching Assistant for Mechatronics System Design and Introduction to Finite Element Modeling during Master's tenure.
Highlights
- Received Graduate Teaching Assistant Award for Excellence during both years.
Advanced Feature Development Intern
Created mock-ups/prototypes of customer/employee vehicle feature ideas.
Highlights
- Built department's full-stack intranet website with PHP and HTML5/CSS3 using SharePoint as the database.
- Recieved Canadian Manufacturers & Exporters Scholarship.
Awards
-
November 2015
Western University
Graduate Teaching Assistant for Excellence Award
Awarded to one TA per faculty & voted for by students. Recieved twice in November 2015 & 2016.
-
October 2013
CME
Canadian Manufacturers & Exporters Scholarship
Awarded to a student with strong contribution to their manufacturing internship company.
Volunteer
Volunteer
Bi-monthly science demonstrations/experiments at St. John Dearness Public School
Highlights
- Kids would always ask the teacher when I'd be back.
Projects
- GreenGuy.me: From-scratch full-stack Blog/CV website using Flask, SQLite3, and Bootstrap with automated elements. This project was an excuse to create and traditionally host a custom web app.
- Project Minis: Compilation of random rabbit-hole side projects to display proof of competency.
- iLogic Design Automation: Utilized Autodesk Inventor's iLogic (VBA wrapper) to write three key automation programs which ultimately prevented the need to hire two additional designers (Raytheon-owned project)
- Solidworks Part Conveyor Generator: VBA program to generate ingoing/outgoing conveyor rack design based on importing CAD part (to get size/weight) and takt-time requirements. (Magna-owned project)
