About this Candidate

DAVRON CV: Candidate 3806487

PROCESS ENGINEER | CHEMICAL PROCESSING, SURFACE FINISHING & SENSOR INTEGRATION

Core Expertise

  • Chemical process development for acids, bases, cleaning and etching to meet surface-finish specifications.
  • Pilot-testing and scale-up of new chemistries in production with external suppliers and operators.
  • Specifying and integrating sensors including conductivity, level, temperature, viscosity, flow, and pump signals.
  • Quality compliance and root-cause analysis within NADCAP and ITAR-regulated manufacturing environments.
  • Leading process modernization and capital retrofit projects on legacy surface-finishing equipment.

Project Background

  • Introduced and validated a new cleaning chemistry to align with organic-based lubrication systems.
  • Conducted pilot studies across multiple part configurations to optimize concentration, bath life, and performance.
  • Specified and added conductivity, level, temperature, viscosity, flow, and pump sensors during retrofit work.
  • Improved safety and process controls by redesigning containment components and updating JHA tracking systems.
  • Developed quality-control processes for color checks, raw material inspections, and root cause investigations.
  • Built Excel-based tracking for material usage and downtime to inform maintenance and cost decisions.

Key Skills

  • Process development and scale-up for production implementation and vendor coordination
  • Chemical handling, surface finishing, etching, and cleaning chemistry management
  • Sensor specification and instrumentation: conductivity, level, temperature, viscosity, flow, pump monitoring
  • NADCAP and ITAR-regulated quality systems, audits, and root-cause analysis
  • Python | MATLAB | Excel for data analysis, reporting, and process modeling
  • CAD for component design and fabrication oversight, including vendor collaboration

Education

  • B.S., Chemical Engineering — University of Cincinnati

Why Interview this Candidate?
