MEP Community! Could you use a second set of eyes? Then let me help you out! I'm a licensed professional engineer in several US states with over 17 years of MEP engineering design experience, focusing on Mechanical and Plumbing systems that serve the built environment. Detailed and thorough reviews and markups of MEP design work are one of my particular strengths, which is why I'm pleased to offer them here on Upwork. The majority of my design work experience has spanned a wide variety of general commercial projects. I also spent a couple of years working for a large regional mechanical contractor where much of my role was focused on reviewing design drawings from various engineering firms during the bidding and preconstruction phases looking for things like general coordination items, missing scope, potential constructability issues, and ways to reduce cost or add betterments to the project. In my current role, I'm the engineer-of-record for all of my firm's HVAC and Plumbing design work -- so I understand firsthand the importance of making sure the work bearing my seal is as accurate, complete, and high-quality as possible. Given my experience, I feel that my services would add appreciable value to any design or constructability review process. So what I offer you is a detailed, independent third-party review of MEP engineering design work. Who can benefit from this service? Design Firms (A/E or MEP): -Reduce the risk of projects going out the door with embarrassing or potentially costly mistakes. -Improve interdisciplinary coordination and overall construction document quality. -Cut down on potential RFIs and change orders during construction. Contractors/Construction Managers: -Uncover missing scope or lack of coordination. -Identify potential constructability issues. -Propose possible cost reductions or value-adding betterments. -Write more informed and effective RFIs. Owners/Owner's Reps: -Increase thoroughness and completeness of contractor bids. -Identify potential cost savings or future maintenance/longevity issues. -Reduce the risk of expensive change orders during construction. How does this work? It's simple! 1. You send me a PDF of the MEP engineering design work that you'd like to have reviewed. 2. I perform a thorough and detailed review of the work, looking for things like completeness, accuracy, coordination, constructability issues, and general quality. Using Bluebeam or Bluebeam Studio, I create a mark-up of my review. 3. I send the marked-up PDF back to you for your use. 4. Have peace-of-mind knowing that the design work has been looked by an experienced, yet fresh set of eyes. If this sounds like something that would greatly benefit you, then give me a buzz! I look forward to working with you. ***Sorry, but at this time, I cannot offer engineering design services or sealed/stamped drawings.***Mechanical Engineering

I deliver hands-on experience in designing, simulating, and deploying integrated systems from concept to operation. What I Deliver: Process Automation & AI Integration: Design and deployment of intelligent automation solutions (PLCs, HMIs, robotics) and AI-powered tools for training, optimization, and predictive maintenance. Proven example: Engineered and deployed a ChatGPT-powered interactive training cart for Purdue's Smart Manufacturing Lab. This system enables students to master complex PLC programming (Allen-Bradley, Studio 5000) and process control through AI-guided workflows, enhancing learning efficiency (e.g., reduced training time by X%, increased competency by Y% - add metrics if possible). End-to-End Industrial System Design & Simulation: Full lifecycle development including conceptualization, CAD design (AutoCAD, SolidWorks), component selection, sensor integration, control logic programming (Studio 5000), commissioning, and troubleshooting. I create realistic simulation environments for system validation, operator training, and safe troubleshooting. Data-Driven Problem Solving & Process Optimization: Application of Six Sigma methodologies (DMAIC, Root Cause Analysis) to identify bottlenecks, reduce waste, and improve quality. I leverage operational data to drive insights for continuous improvement. Proven example: Analyzed manufacturing process data, applied Six Sigma tools to identify inefficiencies, and implemented automation changes resulting in a Z% increase in throughput / W% reduction in defects (quantify impact if possible). Technical Proficiencies: PLC/HMI Programming: Rockwell Automation (Studio 5000 Logix Designer, FactoryTalk View). CAD & Design: AutoCAD, SolidWorks. Automation Hardware: Sensor integration (Vision, Pressure, Temp, Flow), Motor Controls. AI Integration: Practical LLM application (e.g., ChatGPT API) for industrial use cases. Methodologies: Six Sigma (Green Belt principles), Lean Manufacturing. Core Skills: Industrial Troubleshooting, System Simulation, Technical Documentation. Why Hire Me? I combine Purdue's top-tier engineering education with hands-on project execution. I actively bridge emerging AI technologies with industrial automation practices and am dedicated to finding efficient, data-backed solutions. I communicate technical concepts clearly for diverse audiences. Ideal Projects: Designing or troubleshooting PLC-controlled automation systems; Developing AI-enhanced tools for industrial training or diagnostics; Creating manufacturing process simulations; Optimizing processes using data analysis and Six Sigma; Developing CAD models/schematics for industrial equipment; Integrating sensor networks and data acquisition systems.
