Our People: North America

My position as Product Engineer allows me to be involved in just about anything and everything to do with electronics on the Challenger 300 and Gulfstream 450. My day consists of everything from trend analysis to integration testing, there's so much variety to my job that things never get boring or routine.  My favorite times at Moog are when I'm doing what I do best – working closely with my colleagues performing root cause analysis. For me it's very rewarding finding solutions to problems and implementing those solutions especially because it allows me to learn from my more experienced co-workers.

As a company Moog has treated me extremely well, I feel like a valued part of a team working on the future of aerospace electronics.  I used to work for an auto parts manufacturer that treated employees with little respect, there was a distinct sense of the management only being interested in the welfare of the employees that they had personal ties to.  I was working as a contractor when a full time position became available for which I was the only qualified applicant, but the job went to a person who was a close friend to the plant manager even though this applicant had no experience in the field, after that I did not want to have anything to do with that employer anymore and began to search for other opportunities, That's when a friend told me about Moog. He recommended I applied, so I did. It's been the best move of my career.
