What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a senior instrumentation role where I can own commissioning, calibration, and reliability work, support safety-compliant shutdowns, and improve loop performance and metrological integrity in offshore/onshore industrial plants.

I’m a Senior Instrumentation Technician with 17+ years of experience supporting oil & gas, chemical, pulp & paper, energy, and manufacturing facilities. I focus on improving operational reliability, safety compliance, and metrological accuracy through commissioning, calibration, maintenance, and startup of industrial instrumentation systems.

Across offshore and onshore environments, I lead field diagnostics, loop testing, and troubleshooting—especially during shutdowns and critical assets—to support safe, faster production recovery. My work consistently aligns with a safety-first mindset and international compliance expectations, including permit-to-work procedures.

In recent roles, I’ve maintained high availability of pressure, level, temperature, and flow instruments through preventive and corrective maintenance routines. I’ve also supported commissioning and startup activities during shutdowns, while executing on-site calibration and troubleshooting in hazardous environments.

I bring deep instrumentation specialization—from analytical instrumentation to control valves, positioners, and sensor diagnostics—paired with strong technical documentation skills (P&ID and datasheets). With training and certifications such as NR-10, NR-33, NR-35, CBSP, and HUET, I help keep equipment performance stable and reliability programs moving forward.
