Operations & scheduling specialist aligning workforce to SLAs.
What I'm looking for
I’m an operations and workforce specialist focused on resource scheduling, real-time management (RTM), and process optimization for US-based markets. I bring a proven track record of translating logistics complexity into clear coverage plans that protect service delivery.
In my role as Remote Operations & Scheduling Manager (National Petroleum), I managed end-to-end scheduling for a fleet of 20+ mobile resources and aligned driver availability with forecasted demand to achieve 100% on-time service delivery. As the primary operational controller in the PST time zone, I monitored real-time performance and made immediate schedule adjustments to cover unplanned absences or delays.
I also strengthened operational performance by implementing systems that minimized coverage gaps and reduced inventory/output discrepancies by 15% while effectively managing shrinkage during peak hours. By streamlining daily reporting workflows with digital tools and Advanced Excel, I reduced manual data entry time by 20% and improved the accuracy of shift handover reports.
Beyond operations, I’m currently working as an AI Data Specialist & Prompt Engineer at Soul AI, where I evaluate and rank AI outputs for logic and safety and design complex prompts to guide Large Language Models (LLMs). I’m comfortable bridging technical needs and stakeholders, and I bring bilingual communication (English/Spanish) to drive clarity and continuity in high-pressure, remote environments.
