My experience expands to maintaining the correct functioning of the boat, including the different systems, such as propulsion, electrical, hydraulics, and HVAC. I consider myself a good coworker, who helps others even if it is not on my duties. My ability to adapt quickly to new challenges has helped me in my previous jobs. I am eager to take my skills and knowledge to a new project where I can apply them and continue to develop as an engineer.
