Experience:
Leading Engineering Laboratory Technician/ Radiological Controls Shift Supervisor(RCSS): (September 1999 to July 2002) Served aboard the USS Emory S. Land (AS-39). My primary duties included the oversight of divisional programs including maintenance scheduling, radioactive material accountability, quarterly data reports, chemistry trend analyses and the supervision and critiquing of six junior chemists. Additional duties included maintaining the internal monitoring program for radiation health records, overseeing the issuing of and processing of radiation monitoring equipment, using both single-channel and multi-channel analyzing equipment, and preparing and conducting training to increase the level of knowledge of divisional personnel. RCSS responsibilities included supervising, monitoring, and performing radiological work, surveys, and contamination controls associated with the maintenance of nuclear powered submarines. As RCSS I also ensured proper quality assurance controls in work packages as well as correct implementation of procedures and correct documentation at the worksite. As a senior supervisor I was occasionally tasked by our ships Audit, Surveillance, and Evaluations program to conduct surveillances of jobs in progress. The purpose of this program is to put an outside set of eyes on a job to get an idea of how maintenance and quality assurance training programs are working and to note weak areas, recurring problems and to determine which areas of training can be approved.
Engineering Laboratory Technician/Mechanical Operator: (September 1996 to April 1999) Served aboard the USS California (CGN-36). Performed qualitative and quantitative analyses of reactor coolant water, steam generator water, feed and condensate water, and all grades of make-up water. Experience included the use of various methods of corrective chemistry as well as collection of data and trend analysis to preclude out-of-specification conditions. Performed surveys for alpha, beta, gamma, and neutron radiation. Obtained proficiency with the use of radiation detectors. Implemented local radiation control limits and maintained personnel dose assessment records. Performed mechanical maintenance associated with reactor plant and steam plant operations. Qualified as Engine Room Supervisor (ERS), the senior engine room watch stander, responsible for monitoring, and supervising all engine room operations associated with the operations of a Naval reactor plants. Qualification as ERS requires in depth knowledge of both electrical and mechanical operations and maintenance.
