SUMMARY
Field Support Engineer with 12+ years of military and aerospace experience, including F-35 structural modifications, composites, avionics-adjacent troubleshooting, and flight-data–driven diagnostics.
Skilled in UAV-transferable manufacturing, repair, wiring, soldering, CAD, and composite layups.
Real-world combat experience supporting aircraft in Kuwait, Japan, South Korea, and Operation Inherent Resolve.
English: Native C2 • Ukrainian: A2.

CORE COMPETENCIES
• Aircraft-to-UAV skill crossover: composites, carbon fiber layups, bonding, metal fabrication, precision drilling
• Wiring, soldering, harness repair, connector building, continuity testing
• CAD & drawing interpretation (blueprints, process specs, tolerances)
• Flight data diagnosis, sensor interpretation, RCS/LO restoration
• Technical documentation, training, and cross-functional engineering support
• Deployed military experience under operational tempo and real-world constraints

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
Northrop Grumman – Field Support Engineer (Level 3)
June 2023 – Present
• Supported four F-35 squadrons at NAS Lemoore; deployed to shipboard and forward locations.
• Performed structural and systems troubleshooting using flight data, wiring diagrams, and engineering tools (CRE, JEDI, VAS, FCLS, PDM).
• Verified documentation on-aircraft to ensure accurate maintenance; trained maintainers in correct processes.
• Specialized in Low Observable (LO) repair, surface alignment, gap/step control, precision drilling, and composite restoration—skills directly applicable to UAV manufacture and repair.
Northrop Grumman – Lead Aircraft Modifications Mechanic (Level 4)
Jan 2018 – June 2023
• Conducted complex metal/composite modifications, including scarf repairs, cold-working, planform alignment, and structural rework.
• Interpreted engineering drawings and ensured products met or exceeded specification.
• Built and documented multiple process improvements, saving up to 80% labor hours on certain operations.
• Performed wiring, soldering, connector work, and small electrical repairs relevant to modern UAV systems.
Vermont Air National Guard – F-16 Engine Mechanic
Aug 2013 – Jan 2018
• Conducted teardown, build-up, borescope inspections, and isochronal inspection tasks.
• Deployed to Japan, South Korea, and Kuwait; supported combat operations during Inherent Resolve (996 weapons released in two months).
• Maintained a high-tempo maintenance environment with strict technical order compliance.
