About Me
Mechatronics Engineer and Controls Technician Level III at Cummins Fuel Systems Mexico, with more than five years of hands-on experience in industrial automation and controls. Experience with Allen-Bradley CompactLogix and MicroLogix PLCs, Studio 5000, RSLogix 500, Keyence and Cognex machine vision, SQL Server, Balluff RFID, EtherNet/IP, and C# / VB.NET tools for Production and Maintenance. My work includes troubleshooting, device integration, functional testing, online validation, and equipment start-up support. Previously an Automation Technician at Wistron Mexico. Based in Ciudad Juárez, Mexico, and open to U.S. relocation for Controls / Automation opportunities. I am a Mexican citizen and would require employer support and documentation for the appropriate TN work authorization process before starting U.S. employment. Spanish is my native language. I can participate in technical interviews in English and read technical manuals and automation software documentation. Available to start within two weeks after the required work authorization is in place and the start date is agreed. Can accommodate a one-week start if the employer needs an earlier start.
