@samueluser47
Mechanical engineering graduate with hands-on experience at GermaineAuto Center and a 3.5 kVA off-grid solar system installation.
What I'm looking for
At GermaineAuto Center, I performed preventive and predictive maintenance and collaborated with senior technicians to detect noise and troubleshoot electromechanical faults on different vehicles. I applied my academic knowledge of dynamics and mechanical systems in a real-world setting.
During my generator technician internship, I gained hands-on experience diagnosing and repairing internal combustion generators and small engines. I also encountered motorcycle repair and fault detection while applying mechanical engineering principles to maintenance tasks.
For my final-year thesis at Lagos State University, I designed and analyzed an appropriate photovoltaic system and installed a 3.5 kVA solar power system to reduce grid dependency. I’m interested in engineering, robotics and automation, energy and sustainability, and automobile systems.
