What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a challenging, responsible role in a reputable organization where I can expand my learning and fully utilize my mechanical/renewable energy training, while making a significant contribution to company success through technical support, problem-solving, and measurable outcomes.

I’m a Mechanical Engineering graduate from Micheal Okpara University Of Agriculture Umudike, Abia State, and I completed my National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) in August 2025. My coursework spans Thermodynamics, Fluid Mechanics, Heat Transfer, Renewable Energy Systems, Machine Design, and Control Systems.

At ASOPADEC (Abia State, Umuahia), I worked as a Technical Assistant from April 2018 to March 2023. I implemented corrective action procedures within prescribed guidelines, provided technical guidance and support to team members, and escalated high-priority issues to other technical resources.

I’m driven by energy efficiency and sustainability, and I’ve built hands-on focus through a student-led design and simulation of a Hybrid Solar-Wind Power System for Rural Applications. I bring practical tools and emerging-tech curiosity—Python basics (scripting, data analysis, automation), MS Excel (advanced formulas, data visualization), AutoCAD, and MATLAB—plus AI and blockchain fundamentals tied to energy and supply chain concepts.
