I am a certified welding inspector with over eight years of experience in various industries, including oil and gas, rail, and offshore structures. My career highlights include working as a Quality Engineer, Certified Welding Inspector, NDT Inspector (Radiographic Film Interpretation & PCN L2 PT), and Integrated Management Systems (ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001) Internal Auditor.
I hold a master’s degree in Welding Engineering from Cranfield University and another in Pipeline Engineering from the University of Port Harcourt. In my previous roles, I supervised significant pipeline construction projects and developed comprehensive quality management plans.
I bring extensive expertise in welding inspection, non-destructive testing, quality assurance, quality control, project engineering, and vendor evaluation if needed. I have a strong command of engineering drawing interpretation and the development of welding procedures for various materials.
Additionally, I am well-versed in multiple industry codes and standards, such as ISO 3834, BS EN, ISO 15614, 10042, 3452 ASME IX, AWS D1.1, API 1101, and ISO 9001:2015. My technical skills include Microsoft Office, Microsoft Project, and Auto CAD proficiency.
In my current role, my primary responsibilities include supervising welding inspection activities and ensuring compliance with industry standards for project Acer. I will also implement quality control plans, perform welding inspection audits, and participate in QA/QC interface meetings to ensure continuous improvement and adherence to quality expectations.
I was chosen for this role due to my extensive experience in welding inspection and quality management. My ability to develop and implement comprehensive quality management plans and familiarity with industry standards make me well-suited for this position. Additionally, my proactive approach to ensuring project compliance, communication, and collaboration skills align well with the company’s core values and operational goals.
I am particularly excited to work on rail vehicle projects that involve advanced welding techniques and high-standard quality management systems. My current project, which includes aluminium welding, is also of keen interest to me as my thesis was centred on 5xxx series aluminium welding.
Outside of work, I am keenly interested in continuous learning and professional development, evidenced by my ongoing pursuit of an International Welding Engineering diploma. Additionally, I enjoy gaming and watching car reviews and rebuilds. I’m a fan of YouTube channels like Mat Armstrong and Mat Watson.
My role aligns with NECIT’s vision and values through my commitment to excellence, safety, and continuous improvement. NECIT understands how quality plays a critical role in keeping projects on track and successfully delivering complex programmes. Their drive to provide customers with confidence and flexibility resonates deeply with my professional philosophy.
I am thrilled to join NECIT, a company that understands the critical importance of quality in delivering complex projects.
