What I'm looking for

I’m seeking agricultural technician or technical support work, including remote, task-based roles.

At Tanzania Agriculture Research Institute, I operate and maintain agricultural machinery during field operations and research trials. I also test and evaluate new farm implements and collect data on machinery performance, fuel efficiency, and field productivity.

At Mwelya Sisalana Factory, I maintained and repaired sisal-processing machines, tractors, and water pumps. I also assisted with decortication, drying, and fiber packaging.

I hold an Ordinary Diploma in Agro-Mechanization and a Technician Certificate in Agro-Mechanization from Ministry of Agriculture Training Institute – Mlingano. I’m comfortable with field data collection and reporting, preventive maintenance, and Microsoft Office, and I’m fluent in English and Kiswahili.
