What I'm looking for

I’m looking to apply mechanical engineering fundamentals and data/quality thinking to build reliable systems—working with hands-on teams where precision, safety, and continuous improvement are expected.

I’m a hands-on mechanical engineering graduate drawn to problems that require both “hands and mind.” My engineering training was built in the field, inside engine rooms, across diesel systems, and through the full lifecycle of heavy-duty machinery. I focus on asking not just how a machine works, but why it fails—and what a better-designed solution would look like.

In my Engineering Intern role at Gilmor Engineering (Nigeria) Ltd, I supported workshop safety through hazard identification and appropriate PPE use. I performed full assembly and disassembly of diesel engines and heavy-duty industrial generators, completed servicing and fuel pump maintenance to manufacturer specifications, and strengthened my fault diagnosis ability through real corrective maintenance work.

Beyond mechanical work, I’ve moved into AI data production as a Sentence Generator & Quality Reviewer, creating linguistically varied sentences and translating them into major Nigerian languages to support multilingual capability. I’ve also handled financial administration as a Financial Secretary by maintaining complete inflow/outflow records and preparing monthly and quarterly statements, and I’ve led CPA marketing campaigns using targeted traffic and audience optimization to improve conversions.
