What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead automation and controls projects end-to-end—PLC/SCADA delivery, commissioning, optimization, and technical documentation—within teams that value quality, safety, and continuous improvement, where my process engineering mindset can drive measurable results.

I’m an Automation and Controls Engineer with over 5 years of experience in manufacturing, marine, and service industries, passionate about automation that streamlines processes, improves quality, and drives innovation. I focus on creating sustainable solutions with real impact, supported by strong engineering, operations, and team management capabilities.

In my recent work, I led PLC migration from S7-200 to S7-1200 for an electrolysis control panel, commissioned SCADA for a Waste Heat Recovery unit with a 1.83MW turbine, recalibrated an ABB packaging robot to increase production, and managed decommissioning, relocation, and recommissioning of a sanitizer bottling line. I also commissioned pressure transmitters for real-time tank level monitoring and directed technical procurement of PLC components for industrial generators, while earlier roles strengthened my execution through production KPI management, preventive/corrective maintenance, and project planning with QA/QC and risk mitigation.
