What I'm looking for
I’m a Power Systems & Reliability Engineer focused on electrical maintenance, HV/LV operations, and reliability outcomes that keep industrial and utility systems stable. I troubleshoot complex electrical faults, oversee preventive and corrective maintenance, and use load analysis to improve energy performance.
In my recent role as a Maintenance Supervisor, I resolved a critical electrical load imbalance that repeatedly damaged generator converters and caused frequent tripping—restoring operational stability and reducing equipment failures. I’ve also led maintenance and rehabilitation work including transmission station exposure, installation and maintenance of high/low-voltage control panels, energy auditing, and supervision of substation overhauling and distribution operations.
