I am a Rotating Equipment Engineer for Foster Wheeler. If it spins, I deal with it. I also install gears, and do axle work on the side (as a few of you already know ).

NASA Test Director for the Crew and Thermal Systems Division. Mech Engr by degree and Barrios Technology pays me (but sees me maybe twice a year). We run thermal and/or vacuum testing on space hardware and astronauts in the suits. Here's our patch.
