CollapseAccomplishments

Highlights:

I have a strong Operations & Engineering background in the Metal-mechanical & Steel/Metallurgical industries, as well as in the Electromechanical & Electronics Mfg. industries, and some experience in Plastics, Chemicals and Consumer Goods manufacturing; good computer and informatics skills; industrial equipment (including gas and petroleum operating painting lines furnaces, galvanizing plants and boilers, among others), and machinery control systems engineering knowledge, and a good overall electrical and civil-industrial engineering experience. I am also well experienced with contract/outsourced resources procurement and controlling, having managed teams of direct employees and contractors, and capable of working at several projects at a time, given my strong background and experience in project management and team work. Likewise, for Grupo IMSA � Chile I managed various industrial complex construction and infrastructure expansion and remodeling including the installation of new production lines, storage facilities and new machinery at IMSA Chile�s plants in Santiago. Also led Environmental System engineering program under ISO 14001 norm, including Industrial Safety implementation, Loss control & Job hazards prevention under OSHA ISO 18000 and Quality Systems under ISO 9001:2000 norms accomplishing the ISO certification in all departments under my charge.I have an extensive professional consulting experience, having worked as an independent consultant and also as an employee for Langton Clarke-Coopers & Lybrand, for USACH and for the Santiago Chamber of Commerce.I like to work in a job where I can use my solid technical background and deal with technical and engineering aspects comfortably but working toward the business development end and contributing to the marketing/sales of products. I am also interested in a job that takes full advantage of my broad background, my multicultural-international work experience, and my advantage condition of being fully trilingual English � Spanish-Italian, plus some Portuguese. Being fully bilingual naturally steered me to seek jobs in engineering to work in Mexico. Thus I accepted jobs in Mexico and Chile, and now I'm looking for a position to relocate back to the US because as a family we want our children to go to school in the US. I hope I have been able to present an accurate profile of myself as an engineering and management professional. Please remember that I am located in Chile, so if you want to speak to me, please let me know and I will call at a date and time prearranged.

Companies I like:

Siemens, US Government, HP, etc. Mostly companies which value broad background, strong interpersonal skills and management background plus a solid technical frame. I am fully bilingual and have ample international work experience. I am a good salesman and business developer, I like to work in a job where I can use my solid technical background and deal with technical and engineering issues comfortably but working toward the business development end and contributing to the marketing/sales of products. I am also interested in a job that takes full advantage of my broad background, my multicultural-international work experience, and my advantage condition of being fully trilingual English � Spanish-Italian, plus some Portuguese.
