I can do amazing things in excell - many other amazing things in the rest of office that no one cares about. Also very fluent with visual studio
I've been working with Allen Bradley Rockwell my entire career - there is little that surprises me with it although I've shown some new things it can do
My experience at BCS Automation was heavily involved in electrical engineering and panel design - extensive autoCAD work for the 2D environment, I have never used it for a 3D application.
I love working with Siemens. It's not as common as Rockwell so I wrote 5 years as I haven't touched one in the last 3 years and even then it's only when the customer doesn't insist on Rockwell. It is a great environment and a good platform though I would say I can do anything with it it is not as second nature as Rockwell is for me
The first interface I programmed for - I come across wonderware typically doing waste water projects and I used it extensively working projects for Domtech Inc. (wire and cable manufacturing)
I've used many modicon systems and it was what we where trained in in school. Typically older controllers re purposing systems

Professional Competencies (13)
Ive designed projects from absolute scratch to building off existing standards. Traveling to different offices or networking at my home office.
Ive spent the majority of my career designing electrical control systems. I/O drawings Panel drawings Power distribution Risers Network P&ID Grounding Interconnection
Ive been developing and configuring various SCADA systems, standard and custom, for my entire career. From the very old to the very new. 4 stars because there is a range of products Ive never used but my experience with other products limits any learning curve. Ex: Industar (an older DOS based SCADA) Factory Talk Wonder ware WinCC and limited experience with Ignition software.
In my earlier days I was a project manager for projects at the company. Since becoming independent Ive been serving as job lead on every project - whether initially commissioned for that position or being requested in the middle of the job due to my abilities.
Im very comfortable working in any PLC environment. I can take a project at any point. I do design and onsite. I can develop creating standards or working with an existing standard. I have no limit when it comes to programming.
Problem solving and trouble shooting is what puts me in a top category as a control systems specialist. I use a standard organized approach to isolate and remedy. Detailed examples can be explained upon request.
