I have a degree in electronic engineering and management information systems. I\u2019ve worked on quality assurance in telecommunications for many years. I joined the LBNF\/DUNE project in 2018. There are a lot of specifications that contractors need to follow. I work on procedures, work instructions, checklists, and related items. The APA modules for the DUNE far detector are almost 24 feet long. How do you get an APA down the mile-deep shaft and into the detector cavern without putting stress on the thousands of wires inside the module? I like working with the people on this project. It\u2019s a collaborative effort.<\/p><\/blockquote><\/div>\n<div class=\"learnmore\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.fnal.gov\/pub\/science\/lbnf-dune\/index.html\">Curious about the project?
