What I'm looking for

I seek an instrumentation/control role in industrial automation where I can apply PLC/DCS/HMI skills on process control projects, work hands-on with field devices, and grow within a collaborative, safety-focused engineering team.

I am an instrumentation and control engineer with five years of academic training and hands-on internships in the oil and gas sector, focused on improving control systems and industrial automation performance.

My master’s work and internships concentrated on PLC programming, DCS operation (Mark VIe), P&ID interpretation, and industrial network integration (Ethernet/TCP-IP); I have practical experience programming PLCs with Step7 and TIA Portal and using HART communicators and HMIs.

I deliver pragmatic solutions for process control and field device integration, enjoy collaborative, safety-focused environments, and am ready to contribute immediately to system optimization, troubleshooting, and commissioning in industrial settings.
