What I'm looking for

I seek an entry-level mechanical engineering role applying plant operations, process understanding, CAD and maintenance skills in a safety-focused team with mentorship and growth opportunities.

I am a mechanical engineering student who has completed 3.5 years of a BSc program with a strong focus on practical plant operations and engineering fundamentals. I am seeking an entry-level position to apply academic knowledge in an industrial setting.

I completed multiple mechanical internships at fertilizer and combined-cycle power plants, where I studied ammonia and urea processes, gas and steam turbine operation, HRSGs and auxiliary systems. I monitored operational parameters, interpreted PFDs and P&IDs, and participated in HSE toolbox talks and Permit-to-Work practices.

I led academic projects including the design and optimization of a solar thermal storage system using PCM-embedded composites and the fabrication and performance analysis of a manually operated floor scrubbing machine. I am proficient in AutoCAD, SolidWorks and Primavera P6, and experienced in preventive maintenance, technical reporting and equipment familiarization.

I bring hands-on plant familiarity, attention to safety, strong communication and teamwork, and I am eager to contribute to engineering teams where I can grow under mentorship and deliver measurable value.
