Data-driven Industrial Engineer specializing in Python/SQL analytics and process optimization.

What I'm looking for

I want to apply Python, SQL, and Power BI to drive process optimization with Lean/5S methods. I’m looking for a data-informed team where I can automate workflows, improve decision-making with dashboards, and grow through continuous improvement.

I’m a data-driven Industrial Engineer focused on data analysis and process optimization, with a strong foundation in operations management using Lean practices. I combine analytical thinking with structured improvement methods to turn operational data into actionable decisions.

In my recent production role, I analyzed indicators and 5S compliance by consolidating and visualizing data in Excel and Power BI. I also designed workstation improvements using time and material flow analysis, and supported decisions through root cause analysis with Ishikawa diagrams and the 5 Whys methodology.

I’m technical and hands-on with data transformation and automation: I use Python and SQL for data extraction, cleaning, and analysis, and I build dashboards in Power BI. I’ve also automated logistics processes with advanced Excel VBA to streamline material routing and improve efficiency.

Currently, I’m applying the same data mindset to mechanical integrity and cathodic protection by structuring field results with Python and Excel, and by producing technical reports with dynamic visualizations in Power BI. I enjoy collaborating on automation initiatives (including an automated rectifier with HMI interface) and using strategic AI prompting to streamline workflows and generate insights.
