What I'm looking for

I am seeking hands-on roles in equipment maintenance, repair, or operations with a safety-focused team, clear procedures, and opportunities to apply technical troubleshooting.

I am a hands-on mechanic and heavy-equipment technician with multi-year experience maintaining, inspecting, and repairing lifts, drilling support equipment, and warehouse machinery. I approach work practically and reliably, completing routine maintenance and occasional major repairs.

My background includes positions in equipment rental, battery warehousing, and drilling support where I handled equipment preparation, cleaning, organization, and assisted skilled technicians. I hold certifications relevant to field operations and hazardous materials handling.

I have a foundation in technical and IT skills including basic programming, networking, and systems familiarity that complement my mechanical trade strengths and improve troubleshooting on modern equipment. I am comfortable operating forklifts, backhoes, and other heavy machinery, and I maintain strong safety and organizational habits.

I am willing to relocate anywhere and authorized to work in the US for any employer; I bring dependable work ethic, practical problem solving, and OSHA/HAZWOPER-compliant safety awareness to roles in maintenance, equipment operation, and facilities support.
