Summary

Sr Industrial Engineer Americas at MOTUL. I’m a bilingual mechatronics engineer who turns complex, high‑speed production ideas into 99 %‑uptime reality. Over the past decade I’ve owned the complete equipment lifecycle for global manufacturers—writing specs and RFQs, selecting vendors, leading 3‑D/PLC integration, and commanding FAT/SAT through to ramp‑up. My playbooks have lifted conveyor availability from the low‑70 s to 98 %+, commissioned double‑digit automated‑warehouse sites without schedule slips, and guided green‑field expansions with more than twenty cap‑ex projects delivered on time and on budget. I bridge disciplines with ease: mechanical design, controls, IT, data analytics, and shop‑floor operations. I write SQL dashboards and SolidWorks models in the same afternoon, then translate technical nuance for executives or hourly technicians in either English or Spanish. Certified in project management and fluent in Lean‑Six Sigma methods, I negotiate with suppliers as comfortably as I coach cross‑functional teams through safety, quality, and start‑up milestones. What defines my leadership is operator‑centric design and relentless follow‑through. Whether I’m rolling out a plant‑wide AGV fleet, rewriting safety standards for multicultural crews, or streamlining traceability systems that track 10 000‑plus parts a day, my metric is the same: launch on schedule and run at velocity—every shift, every line, every time.
