projects. Organized Drafting layouts with drafting lead and engineered build ups for

motion control and PLC’s.

Feb. 2010 – Apr. 2011

Siemens Building Technology, Calgary, AB

Siemens Automation Tech.

I service a wide range of siemens building technology products for building automation

in buildings throughout Calgary, for HVAC and other building controls. Also involved in

PEX construction and commissioning of the products, several boiler systems for radiant

heat and cooling from main air handling units. The Insight HMI control system was

placed on a server at each site to monitor and control the entire building, we also installed

and setup the software as well as for Preventative maintenance schedules.

Jun. 2009 – Nov. 2009

GLC Controls, Calgary, AB

Senior Controls Service Technician

Controls Service for all industries including manufacturing and water. I was lead service

technician for GLC which included service and programming for most Brands of PLC

and VFD drives for motion and motor controls. I also helped sales with procurement,

proposals and pricing from distributors. Designing systems for industries requiring

upgrades was also important especially for newer technology and improving productivity

and requiring less energy usage.

Sep. 2007 – Apr. 2009

Siemens Water Technology, Calgary, AB

Siemens Water Technologist

Water Technology involving control systems for water softeners, Carbon pretreatment,

and Reverse Ozmosis, with deionizing resin for high quality water in numerous industries

from Dialysis at hospitals, to Coke Bottling Plant. Also I maintained the Membrane Bio

reactor at Grey Eagle Casino which was controlled by Simatics PLC, HMI and Siemens

variable frequency drives, programming and troubleshooting involved as well as pump

seal and level control maintenance. Earned Air brakes certificate while driving

freightliner for Siemens.

Sep. 2006 – Sep.2007

Promet, Calgary, AB

Meteorological Field Service

Field air monitoring for local gas company well sites, including SO2 and H2S sensors,

extensive SCADA and data acquisition, remote setup by way of helicopter. Designed and

managed Projects, like the Remote Monitoring System, I built and designed 15 units for

Promet. Including Campbells Scientific Data Loggers, powered by solar Batteries and

Panels, several connections for H2S and SO2 inputs, wind head mechanism to measure

wind speed and direction with built in compass, several TC temperature inputs for inside

and out of units. Meteorlogical towers also used onsite for 100 ft clearance of wind head,

real time controls and alarming used. Once SO2 was detected at remote station on

mountain, the data logger would shut down well from emitting anymore SO2 at flare

stack. Otherwise it will flare, I maintained and built these systems which we could have

many out at one time on separate gas wells all over Alberta and BC.

Sep. 2005 – Sep.2006

Diagnostic Engineering, Calgary, AB

Meteorological Field Service

This involves Field air monitoring for local gas company well sites, including SO2 and

H2S sensors, extensive SCADA and data acquisition, remote setup by way of helicopter.

It is a similar description to the Promet information and duties above.

Mar/ 2005 – Sep/2005

Pyramid Corporation, NISKU, AB

Instrumentation Area Support

I serviced oil and gas plants with Service truck in field, as regular preventative maintenance

schedules of Instrumentation, Hydraulics, and Pneumatics. Pyramid Locations in Calgary, Swan

hills, Red Earth, Slave Lake, Rainbow Lake and Zama. Calibration of Hydraulic ESD’s for

pipelines in the SW and SE of Calgary, did work in High Prairie at OSB Mill on pressure controls

for incinerator, and temperature TC’s. H2S and SO2 local monitor calibrations for compressor

skids and entire Gas plants.

networks, Cimplicity Machine Edition and Quick Designer software. Device Net cards

and protocol, GE SL VFD’s (Variable Frequency Drives), and other forms of motion

controls also supported for auto industries like Hummer etc. Most of the customers were

in the United States, and some in Canada, most motion controls I supported were in a

manufacturing environment.

Mar/ 2001 – Jun/ 2003

General Electric, Schenectady, NY.

Gas Turbine Instrumentation specialist GE

I was a Senior Test Specialist for GEPS tuning Gas Turbines for many Peaker Plants all

over the world. I completed commissioning on site at many plants, once built the unit

was tested based on power output, fuel consumption, stability on temperature, and

Emissions etc.., I used instrumentation on site to measure and record temperatures

throughout unit as well as power output and gas flow with Rosemount transmitters. We

also had CO2, NOX, and Oxygen Analyzers on the exhaust stack which we would

calibrate before hand with proper calibration gases. We frequently tested steam turbines

on site as well as part of heat recovery transferred to more power output. I used a portable

gas chromatograph for analyzing Natural gas composition while in the field as part of

final performance test of Gas Turbines for GE. High Voltage Generator Measurements

using metering PT’s and CT’s for GEPS.

June 27-Dec. 8/2000

NF Hydro, Holyrood, NF.

Instrumentation Technologist

Several of the Thermal power plant duties involved regular shutdown Preventative

Maintenance during summer and service while in operation during the winter. I held a

contract position as instrumentation tech. maintaining systems from water treatment plant

to the boiler controls and instrumentation, to all instrumentation on the steam turbines,

many processes required maintenance. I overhauled many control valves and actuators,

and the control loops involved, once valves were returned it was necessary to calibrate

the loop with all transmitters and the control system in the control room. all types of

processes serviced from level controls using sonar, radar, pressure, capacitance probes

and floats to controls for fuel and atomizing air for boiler guns. Emission controls to limit

SO2, also Environmental Monitoring of water treatment plant, Ph values, Sulfur Dioxide,

Oxygen levels in exhaust gases and Sodium levels in boiler water for NF. Hydro.

Assembled and documented Transformer Monitoring System for Ontario Hydro

Technologies, designed and implemented layout and relay switching Components, LCD

display, Nema rated enclosures, Surface mount and through hole while populating PCB’s

for project. The units were designed to detect leakage currents, oil levels and

temperatures, monitor power levels and relay data to computer systems for controls.

May 15-June 28/ 1996

NF Hydro. Holyrood, NF.
