Summary
I’m applying for the Equipment Specialist role, with a strong background in precision inspection, calibration support, and quality-driven workflows from my years at Ballard Power Systems. My experience programming and operating CMM/VMM systems, executing FAIs and IRTs, and resolving equipment-related production issues has built a solid foundation for IQ/OQ/PQ, and GMP-aligned work. I’m comfortable troubleshooting complex equipment, communicating with suppliers, and maintaining documentation accuracy in regulated environments. I’m eager to bring my technical discipline and problem-solving approach to STEMCELL’s Facilities team, and contribute to reliable, compliant operations.
