Mechanical engineer and machine operator skilled in welding and operations.
What I'm looking for
I am a mechanically focused professional with hands-on experience operating machine tools and welding equipment, and with formal training in mechanical engineering and NCTVET certifications. I combine practical shop experience with technical knowledge gained in high school and vocational certifications.
During a two-week job experience I operated drill-press and lathe machines and used oxyacetylene and ARC welding equipment, and I spent four years working as a process operator at a manufacturing company. I take pride in safe, reliable machine operation and practical problem solving on the shop floor.
I bring strong interpersonal and communication skills, the ability to multi-task, work well under pressure, and collaborate effectively with teammates. My documented qualifications include NCTVET Welding Level 1 and Data Operation Level 1 with merit, and multiple CXC/CAPE subject passes relevant to technical work.
I am hardworking, dependable, and eager to contribute to a dynamic organization where I can apply my mechanical skills, expand my technical experience, and support operational excellence.
