WORK HISTORY
Continuous Improvement Manager @Alleguard
Toronto, ON, CA
I lead industrial transformation initiatives across the entire manufacturing cycle, from process design and machinery automation to energy optimization and regulatory compliance. My approach combines engineering expertise, data analysis, and operational leadership to achieve measurable improvements in productivity, safety, and quality. • End-to-end process optimization: Reduced critical changeover times, such as roll replacement from 35 to 10 minutes, through mechanical redesign and ergonomic improvements. • Automation and control: Integration of PLC and HMI solutions, machinery modernization, and system adaptation to increase production reliability and flexibility. • Industry 4.0 / IIoT: Implementation of data acquisition systems and KPI analysis for strategic decision-making. • Energy efficiency – Scarborough, McNicoll, and Calgary plants: Development of single-line electrical diagrams, load balancing, and electrical system optimization. • Regulatory compliance and industrial safety – Scarborough, McNicoll, and Calgary plants: Development and implementation of Fire Safety Plans in compliance with provincial regulations. • Leadership in Health & Safety Committees (JHSC): Monitoring incident reduction, standardizing reporting, and enhancing prevention. • Maintenance and reliability: Design of predictive and preventive maintenance plans, implementation of CMMS platforms for efficient maintenance management. • High-impact strategic projects: Enhancement of EPS production lines, selection of advanced industrial materials, and equipment modernization to increase capacity and reduce costs. • Mechanical design: Development of new products, from 3D modeling in SolidWorks to injection mold design. • Comprehensive project management: Budget creation, cost tracking, supplier negotiations, feasibility analysis, and project closure.
