What I'm looking for

I am looking for a challenging role in a dynamic environment that fosters growth and innovation.

I am a dedicated and performance-focused Project Engineer with a mechanical engineering background and over 12 years of experience managing technical projects from initiation through completion. My expertise lies in coordinating multidisciplinary teams, overseeing design and fabrication processes, and ensuring timely, cost-effective project delivery in line with quality and safety standards.

Throughout my career, I have developed strong proficiency in mechanical systems, project scheduling, procurement, and contractor supervision. I have successfully interpreted technical drawings, resolved on-site challenges, and maintained clear communication with clients, vendors, and stakeholders. My adeptness at using project management tools such as MS Project and Primavera, along with engineering software like AutoCAD and Pro E, has enabled me to optimize project execution and drive continuous improvement.
