Summary

I’m an experienced and results-driven Field Service Engineer with a strong foundation in HVAC, compressors, plumbing, and industrial mechanical systems—backed by specialized expertise in Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs), Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), and advanced control systems.

With over a decade of field experience supporting high-performance operations at companies like EVAPAR and SPATCO Energy Solutions, I’ve built a reputation for being the go-to problem solver—capable of diagnosing complex issues, executing precision repairs, and keeping mission-critical equipment running at peak efficiency.

My technical toolkit includes hands-on work with leading systems such as ABB, Allen-Bradley, and Siemens, as well as advanced fuel systems and petroleum technologies. I’m certified in fuel safety, hazardous materials handling (DOT & FAA compliant), and multiple OEM platforms, and I bring bilingual communication skills (English/Spanish) to the table for seamless team and client interactions.

Whether it’s installing, optimizing, or troubleshooting high-stakes systems, I approach every job with a commitment to safety, speed, and long-term reliability. I’m currently seeking opportunities with organizations that value technical excellence, field leadership, and a proactive mindset.
