Expertise:
Electrical-Mechanical Integration • HOP (Human & Organizational Performance) • Systems Design
Versatile Engineer with 10+ years of experience bridging the OEE gap between mechanical systems, electrical controls, and software development. Specialized in Human and Organizational Performance (HOP)—designing manufacturing environments that account for human error and favor operational resilience over rigid, fragile processes. Expert in PLC/Robotic programming and collaborating with developers to build data-driven, scalable infrastructure.
CORE COMPETENCIES
•Systems Thinking & HOP: Expert in Lean methodologies (5S/6S, Kata, 3P) focused on human-centric system design to reduce error-prone environments.
•Automation & Controls: PLC Programming (AB, Fanuc, Omron, Mitsubishi, Moto-man), Electrical Troubleshooting, and CNC/Robotic integration.
•Developer Crossover: Proficient in collaborating with software teams for data capture (OEE, SQL, Downtime), IoT/LoRaWAN (TTN), and custom tooling.
•Capital Projects: Full-lifecycle management (CAPEX) from vendor RFQ to 100% quality compliance on the floor.
