What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a Mechatronics role in energy or manufacturing where I can apply automation and PLC-SCADA skills, support preventive maintenance for high uptime, and keep improving through hands-on design, troubleshooting, and team collaboration.

I’m a Mechatronics Engineer (MSc) focused on automation, embedded systems, PLC-SCADA, preventive maintenance, and CAD/CAM design. Through internships at GRATIS Foundation and automotive workshops, I optimized processes to reduce project delays by up to 15%, improved inventory management, and resolved complex vehicle faults to boost customer satisfaction.

In my current role as a Junior Technical Engineer at DesignTech Africa Ltd, I support prototyping and product development, and maintain tri-vision advertising systems and DOOH platforms—achieving 95% operational uptime through mechanical/electrical troubleshooting and fast issue reporting. I document maintenance logs with 100% on-time submission, collaborate cross-functionally to hit milestones, and stay committed to continuous improvement, safety, and measurable engineering outcomes.
