MUHAMMAD AWAIS

North York, ON 647-***-**** ************@*****.*** Open to Relocation

PROFILE

Completed pre-apprenticeship training aligned with the Industrial Mechanic (Millwright) 433A program and eligible to register as an apprentice. A reliable, safety-conscious quick learner who shows up ready to work, asks the right questions, and is committed to growing into a skilled, dependable millwright. Brings 5+ years of hands-on shop-floor experience in manual machining, tooling, and equipment upkeep across injection molding, roll forming, and fabrication environments, and is eager to put that experience to work. Comfortable on manual lathes, mills, and precision measuring tools, with hands-on exposure to mold/die troubleshooting, hydraulics, and pneumatics, and still building depth on the CNC side. Willing to relocate where necessary.
