Please accept this letter as my application for this position. I am extremely interested in joining any company where I can contribute to its focus on engineering innovation and education. My experience in academia and industry, and my strong work ethic would be an ideal fit to your dynamic and vibrant working environment.
During the last four years, I have been working on antenna miniaturization, wideband, in-building (blade) and array antennas for satellite, mobile communication and public security. I have worked on researching, designing, prototyping, testing, tuning, system integration and finally training the production team for mass production. Project management, people management, and working on collaborative projects are some parts of my responsibilities. To achieve organizational objectives, I developed partnerships with universities and companies in Canada and China specifically for cost reduced production. For instance, to implement remote electrical tilting (RET) system, I performed a cost-based study and business acumen and finally, I leveraged partnership with a company in China. Moreover, doing a comprehensive research for a new product and giving technical advice for the best solution with minimum cost to the management team is another part of my work resulting in 5 new products including 2 indoor low-profile high-performance antennas and 1 transportation metamaterial antenna released to the market. I have advanced level experience in working with different electromagnetics and microwave CAD tools including HFSS, CST, TEMS and Cloud RF.
I have gained a vast amount of experience throughout my educational and prior work experience. For plasma radar cross section project I worked in a team of professional engineers and researchers from DND/DRDC. My role as a research engineer was to analyze the impact of plasma layer on electromagnetic waves for object cloaking. I designed, fabricated and integrated microwave and radio systems for plasma RCS measurements, and wrote three computer programs using VBScript, C++ and MATLAB for automated data acquisition/ analysis and to implement a novel method of computational electromagnetics as evidenced by 5 published papers and $150,000.00 in lab grant. I also have expert level experience in working with vector network analyzer, spectrum analyzer, oscilloscope, anechoic chamber measurements and many other lab instruments. I taught more than 14 engineering courses and supervised students in research projects. I also worked on low-profile antenna design and fabrication for MIMO systems and used different modeling and simulation tools including CST-MWS and ADS.
I worked at Ericsson as radio access network design team lead. I supervised and managed different wireless network design teams with strong leadership and relationship building skills in a fast-paced project environment to design, integrate and launch wireless networks for mobile communication in 2 provinces as demonstrated by verification and optimization of more than 500 base stations with net worth of $56.7 MM and having a record of 31 base station installation per month in the project region. I had to work independently while conducting collaborative work with other departments including civil and mechanical engineering teams and site surveying. I worked on project planning and assigning tasks to each team or team members based on quarterly, monthly and weekly targets of the projects for base station antenna design and installation, radio systems integration, verification, quality assurance, and cellular network tuning and optimization. I worked with different standards and protocols including GSM, WiMax, LTE and IP-based networks and technologies like VoIP and VoLTE. I also worked as technical instructor at Ericsson and taught many courses including wireless cellular network design and optimization to technical and non-technical people. I trained more than 250 engineers in telecommunications field. I also worked on developing course materials and curriculum.
During my four-year employment as RF/Microwave Design engineer at Aerospace Center, I worked on designing, fabricating and testing of array antennas, planar antennas, highly directional and wideband antennas including horn and reflector antennas, and system integration for radar and telecommunication systems. I designed and developed Ku/Ka band feed chain and phase shifters utilized in radar systems. I also worked on optical telecommunication components and systems including relief surface gratings utilized as multiplexers and de-multiplexers.
I worked for 2 years as university lecturer. I trained multiple classes on subjects like: electronics, digital circuits, microprocessors, embedded systems, numerical analysis, electromagnetics, antenna, wireless networks, microwaves and RF circuits. I designed, developed, and maintained several classroom and online courses during each semester. I supervised numerous and diverse students of all ages and academic backgrounds, and applied effective training modules including: the creation of presentations and power point documents. Advising and consulting on academic and professional futures was part of my job. I implemented various creative methods using new technologies in order to enhance the learning experiences of the students and conducted and contributed college staff meetings.
No matter where I have been, I have produced topnotch work because I am dedicated to making sure each and every piece stands out from the crowd. I pride myself on my ability to recognize and articulate a distinct voice for every project. Time management and project completion are two things that I feel very strongly about. It did not just develop through my professional experience. It also comes from my fast learning and hard-working ability.
My extensive professional experience as an engineer and researcher can benefit virtually any employer, and I believe what you are asking for and what I can deliver sound like a match. I am looking for a position where my contributions count and my efforts are appreciated. I look forward to meeting with you to further discuss my background and to show you some of the competencies that I have developed. Thank you very much for your consideration.
