Experience
Recruitment Specialist
Apr 2023 — Present · Houston, TX, US
I’m a bilingual workforce specialist with 10+ years of experience in fabrication, manufacturing, and oil & gas, and 3+ years in full-desk recruiting and business development. I’ve built my career from the ground up — starting as a welder on nationwide shutdowns and turnarounds, to now leading recruitment, operations, and digital transformation for high-impact teams.At Apache Workforce, I’ve helped grow our internal workforce from 34 to over 500+ employees in under three years by combining traditional sales grit with modern AI, automation, and CRM strategy. I specialize in recruiting for fabrication, energy, modular data centers, and SMR industries — delivering talent pipelines that move fast and retain well.I’m passionate about bringing structure to chaos — whether it’s digitizing outdated systems, building pipelines from scratch, or bridging gaps between leadership and boots-on-the-ground teams. I also mentor trade school students and conduct bilingual safety orientations, helping future craftsmen succeed.Tools I love working with: n8n, Zapier, Paycor, SolidWorks, AWS, ChatGPT, and whatever tech gets the job done right.If you’re looking for someone who understands the field and the boardroom, let’s connect.
