MARCELUS NWOSU
@marcelusnwosu
Experienced survey engineer with expertise in offshore engineering.
What I'm looking for
I am Nwosu Marcelus Osita, a highly capable physicist and seasoned survey technician with a proven track record in offshore engineering. With over six years of hands-on experience at Pisces Offshore, I have developed a deep knowledge of offshore survey systems and instrumentation, consistently delivering precision from concept through to handover.
My expertise encompasses a wide range of responsibilities, including mobilization, repair, maintenance, execution, and demobilization of various survey projects. I have a strong foundation in electronics, health and safety, and design implementation, which allows me to manage end-to-end design, testing, and deployment effectively. I pride myself on my safety-first mindset, backed by rigorous field training, and I am eager to contribute meaningfully to ongoing or upcoming field-based initiatives that require technical agility and reliability.
