What I'm looking for

I am seeking I&C roles with increasing technical leadership in mission-critical or EPC environments, opportunities for hands-on control system design, cross-discipline collaboration, and clear paths to Staff-level responsibility.

I am an Instrument & Controls Engineer with three years of engineering consulting experience in mission-critical data centers and related facilities, focused on high reliability and rigorous EPC delivery.

At Burns & McDonnell I lead preparation of complete instrumentation design packages and develop DCS/PLC control system deliverables, contributing to instrumentation indexes, loop diagrams, wiring, and advanced control narratives.

I manage procurement and vendor evaluation for I&C equipment, participate in FAT activities, and coordinate technical documentation across disciplines to ensure constructible, operable systems.

I hold a B.S. in Electrical Engineering, passed the FE exam, am fluent in advanced Spanish, and am pursuing expanded technical leadership as I progress toward a Staff I&C Engineer role.
