What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters innovation and continuous improvement, where I can leverage my expertise to drive operational excellence and enhance asset reliability.

I am a Mechanical Engineering Specialist with over 12 years of experience in the Oil & Gas and Pulp & Paper industries. My expertise lies in driving reliability, efficiency, and innovation through advanced methodologies such as FMEA, RCFA, and RCM. I have a proven track record of enhancing asset uptime and reducing operational costs, which has been recognized through successful project management and cross-functional team leadership.

Throughout my career, I have implemented technical solutions that have significantly improved equipment reliability and reduced downtime. For instance, at NWR, I achieved a 25% reduction in unplanned downtime and secured $500,000 in funding for reliability improvements. My commitment to continuous improvement and operational excellence is evident in my ability to engage stakeholders effectively and adopt new technologies rapidly.

I am passionate about delivering measurable value and am ready to contribute my skills in asset reliability and lifecycle management to a forward-thinking organization. My strong analytical and communication skills enable me to lead teams in achieving ambitious goals while ensuring compliance with industry standards.
