I'm an Engineering Analyst specializing in maintenance operations and documentation. Currently working with one of Indonesia's largest QSR chains, managing maintenance planning for 400+ outlets and coordinating 25 field technicians across preventive scheduling, work instruction writing, vendor coordination, and performance reporting.
My background covers both F&B operations and manufacturing, which gives me a practical cross-industry perspective on how maintenance systems need to be built to hold up at scale.
โธ ๐๐จ๐ซ๐ค ๐๐ง๐ฌ๐ญ๐ซ๐ฎ๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง๐ฌ ๐๐ง๐ ๐๐๐๐ฌ
I write Work Instructions built around how equipment is actually serviced in the field, not only what the manufacturer specifies. Every document includes a tools and materials list, step-by-step procedures, calibration guides, troubleshooting tables, and a tiered maintenance schedule from daily through semi-annual. The same structure applies to any equipment-heavy operation where maintenance needs to be consistent across teams or locations.
โธ ๐๐ซ๐๐ฏ๐๐ง๐ญ๐ข๐ฏ๐ ๐๐๐ข๐ง๐ญ๐๐ง๐๐ง๐๐ ๐๐๐ก๐๐๐ฎ๐ฅ๐ข๐ง๐
For our outlet network I design full-year PM schedules, classifying each visit by type, distributing technicians across coverage zones, and building in Planning vs. Actual tracking so compliance is visible week by week. PM tasks and checklists are also prepared for Nimbly, a frontline operations platform, so assignments are pushed to technicians on mobile linked to the right outlet and schedule.
โธ ๐๐จ๐ซ๐ค ๐๐ซ๐๐๐ซ ๐๐ง๐๐ฅ๐ฒ๐ฌ๐ข๐ฌ ๐๐ง๐ ๐๐๐๐ค๐ฅ๐จ๐ ๐๐๐ฉ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐
Work order data is pulled from our CMMS, cleaned, structured, and turned into tracking reports that give management a clear picture of what is open, what is moving, and what is stuck. The master WO tracker I currently maintain covers 490+ open work orders, each mapped with vendor, equipment details, parts replaced, and approval stage.
โธ ๐๐๐ฅ๐ข๐๐๐ข๐ฅ๐ข๐ญ๐ฒ ๐๐ง๐๐ฅ๐ฒ๐ฌ๐ข๐ฌ (๐๐๐๐ )
Using raw WO data and Excel pivot models, I calculate Mean Time Between Failures for high-cost equipment. The main application in my current role is ice cream machines, which carry some of the highest maintenance costs we handle. The output feeds directly into decisions on PM intervals and vendor contracts.
โธ๐๐๐ง๐๐จ๐ซ ๐๐จ๐จ๐ซ๐๐ข๐ง๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง ๐๐ง๐ ๐๐ฉ๐๐ซ๐ ๐๐๐ซ๐ญ๐ฌ ๐๐ฅ๐๐ง๐ง๐ข๐ง๐
Monthly service schedules for specialized PM are built around machine condition assessments, spare parts availability from both vendor supply and internal stock, and the cost of deploying technicians to out-of-city locations. The goal is to maximize outlet coverage per trip while keeping accommodation spend in check.
โธ ๐๐๐ข๐ง๐ญ๐๐ง๐๐ง๐๐ ๐๐ฎ๐๐ ๐๐ญ ๐๐ง๐ ๐๐๐ซ๐๐จ๐ซ๐ฆ๐๐ง๐๐ ๐๐๐ฉ๐จ๐ซ๐ญ๐ข๐ง๐
Monthly cost estimates for corrective and preventive maintenance go to Finance each period. On the reporting side, I prepare the KPI deck for our Engineering Review meetings, covering PM compliance by region, backlog trends, and reliability metrics.
๐๐๐๐๐
Microsoft Excel for scheduling and analysis, PowerPoint for reporting, Nimbly for checklist task distribution, and a SAP-based CMMS for WO data extraction and monitoring.

Writing Work Instructions or SOPs for equipment-heavy operations in any industry, designing PM schedules for multi-location or multi-asset operations, building WO tracking and backlog management systems in Excel, creating maintenance checklists for field use, calculating MTBF from WO data, preparing maintenance budget estimates, building KPI reports for management review, and structured research or analytical writing on technical or operational topics.

Before this role I spent four years as an Engineering Planner in manufacturing, covering maintenance scheduling, spare parts inventory management, vendor coordination, and monthly downtime reporting. I also take on freelance research and structured analytical writing when the scope fits.
If any of this matches what you are working on, feel free to reach out.
Your CIM is the first thing a buyer judges. Your model is the first thing their analysts try to break. I build both to survive that scrutiny.
I'm an investment-banking analyst with 100% Job Success, $10K+ earned, and 683 Upwork hours supporting investor research and CIM preparation for a US middle-market investment bank across 10 concurrent mandates. Those hours came from just two clients, roughly 340 hours per engagement: clients do not just hire me, they keep me. My portfolio below includes a full 54-page CIM, a blind teaser, and a complete LBO model, all shareable because the companies shown are fictional.
Core services:
โข Financial modeling: three-statement projections, DCF, merger, and LBO models
โข Valuation: DCF, comparable-company, and precedent-transaction analyses
โข M&A and buy-side analysis: sources and uses, accretion/dilution, leverage, IRR/MOIC, and sensitivities
โข Model audits: structural reviews covering balance checks, formula integrity, and assumption sanity, delivered as a severity-ranked findings memo. Recent review work has surfaced a roughly $1M owner deposit booked as revenue and a $200K fixed-asset schedule over-foot, the kind of findings that change a negotiation.
โข Investor materials: CIMs, investment memoranda, teasers, and pitch decks
โข Investment research: company screening, market analysis, and transaction support
Time zones work in your favor: based in Karachi (GMT+5), my day fully overlaps Gulf business hours, covers the European workday, and my evenings meet US East Coast mornings. Same-day turnaround is normal, not a favor.
My deliverables are structured, auditable, and designed for decision-makers. Happy to start with a small scoped milestone so you can judge the quality before committing. Send your model, CIM, or OM and I will reply with three specific observations within 12 hours.
