What I'm looking for

I'm looking to continue managing EPC contract lifecycles, commercial controls, changes, claims, and close-out while applying my electrical engineering and industrial automation background.

At JESA S.A. (Jacobs Engineering), I manage multi-discipline contracts for the M'zinda Phosphate Hub, a strategic industrial program spanning phosphate processing, infrastructure, utilities, and civil and electrical works.

I support the full contract lifecycle, from vendor evaluation and risk identification through kick-off, insurance and bank guarantee management, payment application review, change notices, claims, and final account close-out. I use PROCORE daily and coordinate invoice validation with SAP specialists while maintaining contract registers, KPI dashboards, correspondence, and compliance records.

My electrical engineering background also includes building JV Genie, a web application for IEC 60534-2-1 control valve sizing and selection, deploying KNX-DALI lighting supervision infrastructure, and improving OEE through production-flow analysis.
