Manufacturing Process Design & Improvement
▸ Designed and improved manufacturing and installation processes for cathodic protection systems,
instrumentation, and pipeline infrastructure — reducing rework and increasing first-pass yield across all
projects.
▸ Applied Lean Manufacturing principles to identify and eliminate production bottlenecks, inefficiencies,
and machine reliability issues, resulting in improved throughput and schedule adherence.
▸ Developed, tested, and justified tools, machinery, and equipment specifications for new or improved
production methods — including ICCP & SACP system components for 100+ km of onshore pipelines.
▸ Prepared facility layouts and equipment arrangement drawings using AutoCAD to support fabrication
yard execution and equipment positioning.
BOM, Routings & Technical Documentation
▸ Created and maintained Bills of Materials (BOMs) and production routings for new and revised projects,
coordinating with procurement, fabrication, and field teams to ensure accuracy.
▸ Developed and maintained technical procedures, work packs, method statements, and as-built
documentation — supporting successful authority handover across 20+ projects.
▸ Interpreted technical drawings, datasheets, fabrication specifications, and equipment manuals to verify
all components met design and compliance requirements before installation.
Production Management & Continuous Improvement
▸ Managed up to 9 concurrent multi-million AED projects simultaneously, tracking weekly fabrication
progress, production quantities, and man-hours to monitor productivity and resolve schedule risks
proactively.
▸ Coordinated manufacturing launch for new products/projects — managing baseline scheduling, change
control, risk tracking, and 4-week look-ahead plans.
▸ Led root cause analysis and problem-solving activities to resolve production workflow issues; applied
DMAIC frameworks to implement sustainable corrective actions.
▸ Provided technical guidance to manufacturing and production teams, recommending and implementing
improvements to processes, methods, and controls.
QA/QC, Inspection & Standards Compliance
▸ Maintained audit-ready QA/QC documentation across all calibration, inspection, and fabrication activities
— achieving 100% first-time authority approvals and zero NCRs.
▸ Executed material selection and grade specification reviews per API, ASTM, ASME, ISO, NACE, and
OIML standards.
▸ Supported quoting and order management processes with technical input on material grades, process
methods, and equipment specifications.
