Electrician/ Electronics Technician

Portugal

My name is Paulo Silva and I hold a diploma in Industrial Electronics. Currently I am working in CIMPOR-InterCement, a cement company located in Loulé, Portugal. Prior to my employment at CIMPOR-InterCemen, which is about eight years old, I was associated with PLASEQUIP, which is a Lisbon based company.

As a senior electronics technician in CIMPOR-InterCemen, I install and troubleshoot industrial machinery, including generators, motors, electric boards, cables and variable speed drives. I am comfortable working in confined and extreme spaces, under difficult working conditions and for long hours. Typically, I worked in small crews (three to five people) with little to no supervision; other crewmembers looked to me for advice in performing the electrical work. I am well-versed with different Industrial electrical systems and I also have some knowledge in PLC automation and PL7 Pro software. My company also provides training in Health and Safety on a monthly basis.

In addition to my specific electrician experience, my education and other work experience make me a great candidate for the electrician position. My strong work ethic, dependability, and ability to work well with others also make me an excellent candidate for this position. I am willing to work long hours, including nights and weekends. I am very eager to find an electrician job, and I will do whatever it takes to do the job right.
