What I'm looking for
I am an Engineering Program & Delivery Leader with more than 18 years of experience in commercial aerospace engineering, spanning structural analysis, engineering programme management, customer delivery and engineering transformation.
Throughout my career, I have progressed from a hands-on CAE engineer to leading engineering programmes, managing multidisciplinary teams, overseeing engineering quality and driving operational excellence for global aerospace customers, including Pratt & Whitney.
My experience includes managing multiple commercial aero-engine programmes valued at approximately US$1M annually, engineering Statements of Work up to US$400K and leading engineering teams of up to 20 members. I have successfully combined technical depth with programme leadership, customer engagement and continuous improvement initiatives.
Most recently, I independently designed, developed and deployed an AI-powered Engineering Knowledge Assistant using Microsoft Copilot Studio to improve engineering knowledge accessibility, reduce dependency on subject matter experts and contribute approximately US$150K in annual operational savings while maintaining strong AI governance.
I enjoy solving complex engineering and delivery challenges, building high-performing engineering teams and helping organisations improve engineering productivity through process excellence, digital engineering and practical AI adoption.
I am interested in permanent remote engineering leadership opportunities where I can contribute to engineering delivery, operational excellence and AI-enabled engineering transformation on a global scale.
