Team Leader & Electrical Engineering Leader - Building Construction Services

I lead the Electrical team in the company’s largest project ($12 million with a $20, 000 functioning cost a day), designing a life safety system for the new Material Sciences & Engineering building from the conception to construction (preliminary design, project estimates & feasibility, specifications, detailed designs, construction supervision).

Achievements:

✔Orchestrated & scheduled the construction of a life safety system to detect toxic gas & oxygen depletion in a 6-storey building for 75 laboratories
✔ Spearheaded the design of 5 complex prototypes and expanded to 83 individual electrical panels using AUTOCAD
✔ Coordinated & assessed the activity of 5 Engineers & Technicians (on site & office-based)
✔ Inspected construction on site & supervised construction (logistic)
✔ Checked Electrical designs & completed 3 total proof-readings of the system
✔ Submitted & issued designs for construction
✔ Streamlined the process the 1st month, which saved my team 20 man-hours each following month & reduced errors on design files by 15%
✔ Managed financial costs & reduced costs by merging Electrical panels together ($500 per unit*30 labs with oxygen sensors)

✔ Performed work under high time pressure with tight deadlines

✔ Negotiated deals for high volumes purchases (Toxic Gas Monitoring systems, oxygen depletion detectors, UPS, Junction Box, Relays, Cables, Cable trays)         

✔ Supervised Electrical panels’ completion with the manufacturer

✔ Diagnosed project requirements according to Australian Standards
✔ Shaped the Ethernet Profibus network
✔ Designed the power distribution & the control systems for the 6 levels & performed a highly detailed cable schedule (500+ individual tags)
