At HQ Pack, I managed ERP ISAH diagnostic logs, routing sheets, and bill-of-materials traceability for semiconductor packaging modules. I redesigned workstations and SOPs, reducing turnaround time by 30%, and deployed CAPA/FMEA controls that reduced recurring defects by 22%.

As an independent consultant, I restructured an enterprise client's sourcing to establish direct factory agreements in China, reducing net unit costs by 75%. I also qualified manufacturers in India and remotely sourced and managed inspection teams in China and India.

I architected and developed a proprietary CMMS for industrial machinery lifecycle tracking, preventive schedules, budgets, and employee KPI scoring. I also engineered transactional B2B web applications and automated event-driven workflows connecting CRM, ERP, and project tracking tools.

At VDL Nedcar, I directed 8D problem-solving squads and process capability studies, reducing systemic assembly defects by 15%. My experience also includes warehouse operations, supply chain, and commercial work across Spain, Portugal, and Venezuela.
