About

Mechanical engineer and project manager who owns custom-engineered industrial products cradle to grave, from design through fabrication and testing to commissioning, in CAD/PLM/ERP and QMS environments. Molten steel, power generation, oilfields, diesel engines, marine propulsion, defense systems: different industries, one constant. Every one came down to a hard thermal or fluid problem and the machine design that solves it, and with each move I owned more of the outcome, from running the analysis, to specifying the design, to delivering the whole project. Selected Highlights: - At Lechler, recognized by leadership as the company's senior-most project engineer; owned 30 to 40 concurrent engineered projects (gas cooling, scrubbing, lubrication, cleaning, descaling, SCR) from design through commissioning and built a severity-scaled design-escalation process plus an early production-engagement stage that was later adopted department-wide. - Founded and ran an industrial diesel-engine parts and services venture end to end, from business development through global sourcing, engineering, and delivery, serving 100+ customers across 35 countries. - Bridged Weichai's China engineering HQ and
