Summary

Computer Information Systems student at Portland Community College with 7+ years of hands-on experience troubleshooting, repairing, and calibrating advanced display systems at Planar Systems. Methodical and documentation-driven, with a record of delivering finished work: a live portfolio website, two published Python data-analysis projects, and a data analytics course completed with full credit on every lab. Ready to bring that same discipline to an IT support team now, with cybersecurity as the long-term goal.

Experience

Production Specialist, Planar Systems Inc. · Hillsboro, OR · Dec 2017 to Aug 2025

• Diagnosed and repaired advanced display systems and electronic assemblies for 7+ years, returning units to specification through calibration and testing.
• Performed high-voltage (Hipot) safety testing and precision calibration so each unit met product integrity and safety requirements before shipment.
• Trained new employees on cabinet calibration, LED module assembly, and chassis troubleshooting, and led manufacturing projects.
• Repaired to specification by working from Arena PLM engineering drawings and work instructions; maintained ESD safety standards.
• Partnered with engineering and production teams on process improvements.

Projects

Fuel Economy Regression Case Study · Python · github.com/KhaylubThompsonCalvin/fuel-economy-analysis

• Analyzed 398 vehicles to find what predicts fuel economy; built regression models that explain 79% of the variation in unseen test data and documented what the model cannot claim.
• Cleaned and corrected the raw data before modeling, including fixing 8 misspelled manufacturer names that would have split brands across the results.

SQL to Python Analytics Pipeline · Python, SQL · github.com/KhaylubThompsonCalvin/sql-python-analytics-pipeline

• Built a reproducible analysis of 146 years of public Social Security name data (1880 to 2025) in Python and Jupyter, from download to charts, so anyone can re-run it without database access.
• Kept the original SQL Server integration as working evidence of database connectivity, with credentials handled through environment variables.

Khaylub.com, personal portfolio site · Live · khaylub.com

• Designed, built, and launched a portfolio site three months ahead of its target date using React, Three.js, and Blender 3D models.
• Set up and fixed the full build-and-deploy pipeline and documented each fix for reuse.

Education

Computer Information Systems, Portland Community College · Portland, OR · Dec 2023 to present, full-time

• Data Analytics (CIS277A): completed Summer 2026 with full credit on all ten labs.
• PCC AI Hackathon (Mar 2026): trained a JetBot robot with a collision-detection model.
