What I'm looking for

I'm looking to apply my maintenance, reliability, and asset-management experience to improve equipment availability, optimize maintenance strategies, lead multidisciplinary teams, and contribute to continuous improvement in industrial or oil and gas operations.

I've led maintenance, reliability, and asset-management work across Colombia's oil and gas sector, including Petrotech de Colombia, SKF Latin Trade, Petroworks, and Ecopetrol-related operations.

As a Maintenance Coordinator at Petrotech de Colombia, I led multidisciplinary teams delivering preventive, predictive, and corrective maintenance, while managing materials, resources, budgets, and continuous-improvement initiatives. At SKF, I supported asset-priority analysis and maintenance-strategy optimization for CENIT, including a reliability-centered spares pilot project.

My freelance mechanical engineering consulting focuses on maintenance-process and asset-management solutions, criticality analysis under NORSOK Z-008 and ISO 14224, and maintenance optimization using RCM.

With more than 14 years of experience and an MSc in Maintenance Management, I bring practical capability in RCM, TPM, 5S, RCA, maintenance planning, supply chain coordination, and reliability analysis. I'm bilingual in Spanish and English and comfortable working with SAP PM, IBM Maximo, SolidWorks, AutoCAD, VBA, Power BI, and asset-management systems.
