Praise Kondowe
@praisekondowe
Electrical technician focused on fault finding, repairs, and preventive maintenance for reliable broadcasting and production systems.
What I'm looking for
I am a reputable, results-oriented electrical technician who is hardworking, flexible, and committed to continuous, self-directed learning. I bring strong communication and task prioritization to every assignment, with a clear focus on getting equipment working safely and efficiently.
In my recent role as a Technical Assistant, I handled end-to-end technical issues across multiple sites, maintaining and fixing electrical-related faults. I supported installation of new equipment, maintained technical inventory records, and helped ensure radio and TV broadcasting was effective and efficient.
As an Electrical Technician on industrial projects, I managed hands-on electrical work with precision. On the STRAP LINE UPGRADE PROJECT at Alliance One Tobacco Malawi, I disconnected power cables, labeled drive names and cable runs, and kept detailed inventory records for motors and isolators disconnected from the drives.
I also build quality into operations through equipment-focused work. As a Contractor Electrical Technician during weekend maintenance, I serviced 3-phase motors, and as a Moisture Testing Oven Operator, I operated the oven and ensured quality data transmission into the operations system—always aligned with healthy and safety compliance.
