In my previous roles, I have actively worked with automated conveyor systems, where I conducted regular maintenance, troubleshooting, and repairs. My hands-on experience with materials handling equipment has equipped me with a solid understanding of safety standards and operational efficiency, which I would bring to the Sr Mechatronic & Robotics Technician position at CBRE.

I prioritize safety by adhering closely to OEM safety standards and maintaining a clear understanding of the National Electrical Code. Before commencing any maintenance tasks, I conduct thorough safety checks and ensure that all team members are equipped with appropriate personal protective equipment. My training and adherence to protocols have greatly contributed to minimizing accidents in past roles.

My approach to troubleshooting involves a systematic analysis of the problem at hand. I begin by reviewing system documentation, analyzing error codes, and utilizing diagnostic tools. Collaboration with team members also plays a key role, as pooling our knowledge often leads to faster resolutions. I focus on identifying the root cause to ensure long-term solutions rather than just quick fixes.

In a previous role, our team faced a critical failure in a robotic system that halted operations. I quickly took charge of the situation, coordinating efforts and delegating tasks while ensuring efficient communication. By analyzing the problem together and leveraging each team member’s strengths, we not only repaired the system ahead of timeline but also implemented preventative measures to prevent similar issues in the future.

I regularly engage with professional associations and attend industry seminars to stay abreast of the latest technologies and innovations in mechatronics and robotics. I also follow key publications and online forums in these fields, allowing me to implement best practices and cutting-edge solutions in my work.

I have over three years of experience using CMMS for managing work orders, tracking maintenance activities, and generating reports on equipment performance. This experience has helped me optimize workflows, prioritize maintenance tasks based on criticality, and contribute to overall operational efficiency in prior roles.

I identified bottlenecks in the routine maintenance process for our robotic systems by analyzing maintenance logs and conducting team interviews. I proposed a revamped preventive maintenance schedule that aligned with equipment performance metrics, significantly reducing downtime and improving our response times for maintenance requests.

Effective leadership is key to fostering collaboration and driving team performance. I believe essential qualities include strong communication skills, the ability to motivate others, and a genuine commitment to mentoring junior technicians. Remaining approachable and encouraging constructive feedback within the team further cultivates an environment conducive to learning and growth.

I believe in a hands-on training approach paired with comprehensive documentation. When onboarding new team members, I provide them with structured training that includes job shadowing, quizzes on safety protocols, and practical scenarios. This not only helps them understand the procedures thoroughly but also reinforces the importance of safety compliance in their day-to-day activities.

I am motivated by the challenges presented in the field of mechatronics and robotics, as the work is ever-evolving and requires continuous learning. The satisfaction of solving complex issues and seeing the direct impact of my work on operational efficiency fuels my passion for this role at CBRE. Being part of a dedicated team striving for excellence is also incredibly rewarding.
