CanadaWhat I'm looking for
I am an Electrical and Automation Engineer with 3+ years of hands-on experience in manufacturing automation, process optimization, and continuous improvement. I work extensively with PLCs (Siemens TIA Portal, Allen-Bradley), HMI design, CNC/robotic systems, and logistics automation to improve uptime and yield.
I've led automation projects including a capstone milk-filling system that increased daily output from 179 to 400 bottles and delivered an estimated 2.63-year payback, and I hold a Lean Six Sigma Green Belt. My background includes equipment commissioning, PLC/HMI programming, preventive maintenance, PFMEA and Control Plan development, and troubleshooting using DMAIC/8D.
I am completing a post-graduate certificate in Applied Manufacturing Management – Automation at Conestoga College and seek roles where I can apply Lean principles, automation expertise, and cross-functional collaboration to drive measurable process improvements.
