I improve manufacturing reliability, maintenance planning, and production performance across plant operations.
What I'm looking for
I'm a CMRP-certified mechanical and maintenance engineer improving reliability, maintenance planning, and production performance in manufacturing environments.
At GZ Industries, I develop preventive and corrective maintenance programs through CMMS, manage spare-parts inventory planning, maintain SAP PM records, and prepare maintenance and inventory reports for operational decisions.
I've helped reduce production-floor consumable use by 40%, saving more than USD 50,000, and supported installation of eight machines across four production lines, increasing machine count from 16 to 24. I also led a front-end sub-team that contributed to a 1.5 billion-can production target in 2022.
My background includes production engineering, field service, and health and safety work at GZ Industries, Chi Foods & Drinks, Dangote Cement Plant, and Cadbury Nigeria. I use SAP, CMMS, advanced Excel, root-cause analysis, lean practices, and safety controls to keep operations productive and compliant.
