SYNOPSIS

PROJECT ENGINEER
I have designed and managed multiple projects from the estimating stage through detailed design and installation, mechanical systems, piping/pumping/compressor systems, terminals and storage facilities. I am proficient in managing design engineers and contractors for compliance with project objectives. I am knowledgeable, through direct practice, with primary engineering disciplines, beyond the mechanical engineering discipline and with the relevant applicable codes and standards. I provide effective cost/schedule control, management of change. My engineering experience is inclusive of procurement, including bidding, bid conditioning and contractor screening.

I am reliable and decisive within limits of the authority given to me while keeping my superiors and clients informed. My people skills include flexibility and tolerance as needed, internal or external. I produce under odds without loss of perspective and communicate requirements in a clear and objective manner, disciplined to function within prevailing rules and procedures.
