Dear Members of the Selection Committee;
I am interested in investigating permanent employment opportunities with your organization. My resume is enclosed for your review and evaluation.
As you will note, I have a strong professional background in the troubleshooting, repair and installation of electrical, electronic and instrumentation systems, Programmable Logic Controllers and S.C.A.D.A./ DCE systems and multi-axis Robotics. This includes lead positions and training roles. My areas of expertise is as an industrial electrician, power plant / engine room maintenance, industrial electrical /computer / electronics environments, including Allen Bradley PLC's, using Rockwell Software’s “R.S. 5000”, “Studio 5000”, “PanelView”, “FactoryTalk” and “Wonderware” for H.M.I. / S.C.A.D.A./ DCE systems, as well as high speed bottling and packaging equipment. I hope the diversity of my background will be of value to your organization.
My combined Experience and Education consist of college courses as an Electrical Engineering student from 2013 to 2015, updating my Industrial Electrical Systems and Controls training in 2010 through W.E.C.A. (Western Electrical Contractors Association), Corporate and Military sponsored schools, as well as other vocational courses coupled with On-The-Job training of over 30 years’ experience.
The training consisted of Programmable Logic Controllers (Rockwell Software RS 2, 5, 500, 5000, and Studio 5000), Mechanical Electrical Control Systems, N.E.C. Code changes and Advanced Electrical Troubleshooting skills.
I also have prior College education and training in Computer Science and Cisco Systems LAN / WAN networking technology (2000 to 2002). This was to enhance my skills in Automation & Controls (SCADA/DCE) as I know this is the future in automated manufacturing, power plant controls, stationary engineering, logistics, transportation and eventually will be the future need of most industries.
