Job Sought
I am an EE with about 20 years of engineering experience, mostly within the electronic product development industry. I have managed products from conception through production, including design, manufacturing, and technical marketing.

Some of these products number into the millions in the field, including products incorporating patented intellectual property that I designed, promoted and integrated with companies throughout the world. I am currently exploring companies in the area who need someone to help lead them and their products into the future.

Thought for the Day
Taking shortcuts in design is not the same thing as cost-cutting.

Send Us Your News

If you have information of interest to IEEE Kansas City Section members, please send that to the Publications Officer (writer @ ieee.org). Here are some examples of what we're looking for:

News pertaining to individual IEEE members of all grades, including students:

  • Awards, promotions, appointments, honors.
  • Notable achievements.
  • "Looking for work"--send a paragraph explaining what you do and how to reach you.
  • Obituaries.

News to benefit other members

  • Technical courses, programs, seminars, lectures, lunch and learns, and tours open to members of the Section, a Society Chapter, or an Affinity Group Chapter.
  • Technical resources. A technical book or Website you found particularly useful.
  • Job openings.
  • Mentoring opportunities.
  • Updates on such groups as FIRST.
    •

There is no "deadline." Just send information as you get it, and the Publications Officer will add it to the next eNL (if the item is appropriate and if space permits--and space nearly always permits).
