Instrumentation and Control engineer with 8 years' power/refinery experience.
What I'm looking for
I am an Instrumentation and Control engineer with about eight years of hands-on experience in commissioning, maintenance and troubleshooting at power plants and refineries, including work on GE gas turbines, HRSGs and multiple DCS/ESD/PLC platforms. I have maintained and calibrated transmitters, analyzers (O2, gas detectors), control valves (Fisher, ABB, Siemens), RTDs/thermocouples and worked extensively with HART/FF communications.
I have performed field-to-DCS signal marshaling, ESD and permissive checks, alarm/event reviews, pneumatic repairs and loop simulation across Foxboro, Mark IVe and Triconex systems, and supported installation, wiring and site commissioning activities. I seek to leverage my practical instrumentation skillset and safety-focused approach to deliver reliable operations and lead toward instrumentation leadership.
