Summary
I am a skilled mechanical engineer apprentice with hands-on experience in machining, fitting, fabricating, and welding. Strong technical skills matched with a deep understanding of mechanical systems and processes. I have experience working on wastewater, agricultural, and port machinery. I have experience working in big plants, such as Oji, while also having experience working in a small workshop environment. I have always been passionate about engineering, and I am looking for somewhere to further develop in my career.
