What I'm looking for

I seek a role in mining automation or field service where I can lead installations, improve fleet uptime, and apply automation and diagnostic skills within a safety-first, results-driven team.

I am an adaptable mining automation and service engineer with extensive field experience installing, commissioning, and troubleshooting Sandvik fleet systems and remote control technologies across West Africa. I combine hands-on mechanical and electrical expertise with software and network troubleshooting skills.

My career includes progressive roles at Sandvik Mining and Construction and Barrick Gold Limited, where I led AutoMine, RCT, CAN bus, and fleet data management installations and diagnostics on loaders, trucks, and drill rigs. I have performed major component installations, calibrations, and planned maintenance across diverse heavy equipment.

I also have cybersecurity and penetration testing experience from a placement at Sperix Cybersecurity Lab and technical systems experience from Mantrac and the Electricity Company Limited, giving me a strong systems-thinking approach to reliability and safety. I maintain continuous self-study of electrohydraulic schematics and machine control systems.

I am disciplined, safety conscious, customer-centric, and driven to deliver results while maintaining high integrity. I seek to apply my combined electrical, automation, and fleet-support skills to improve uptime, safety, and productivity in mining operations.
