• Leading the development of lithium market research products

• Interfaced field and technical personnel to advance analytics, automation and digitization projectso Conducted reconciliation which demonstrated machine learning and control systems improve safety and mining production rates• Generated gas reservoir models, collaborating with field personnel to direct drilling operations• Lead economic modelling and technical due diligence for direct carbon mitigation technologies including onsite green hydrogen electrolysis and ventilation air methane abatement • As part of the FutureSmart Mining™ initiative, in consult with industry partners (such as CSIRO), conduct research into feasibility and implementation of modern mining technologies such as acoustic emission and microseismic monitoring for outburst and permeability prediction

• Excel modelling of material handling problems for mining projects (pipeline slurry and conveyor)

• Managed sales across 30+ accounts throughout Australia, New Zealand and Papua New Guinea by frequent interactions with drilling engineers scoping out problems and how they correlate to solutions, technical proposal and tender development, nursing opportunities to fruition, budgeting, coordinating product delivery via manufacturing and logistics, invoicing and contract negotiations• Delivered 9x successful jobs as a field engineer supporting various drilling solutions, accumulating over 180 days hands-on experience working offshore and on land drilling rigso Produced daily performance reports for key stakeholders, took charge of the rig’s drilling parameters, interfaced with multidisciplinary teams often with competing objectives in intense results-driven environments• Provided technical reports and presentations to E&P operators, value-added by Excel analysis of drilling and subsurface logs. Through dialogue and networking sought vertical and cross-selling opportunities

• Managed five engineers across Australia, New Zealand and Papua New Guinea whose primary function was to support sales and interface between design, sales and engineering teams• Supervised technical integration of multi-product solutions to E&P operators and service companies • Researched and authored petroleum industry publications and high-profile sales proposals countrywide• Received over US$200K investment in professional development from 2011 – 2019 with corporate training. Topics ranged from technical product-specifics, to delivering sales and managing performance

• Assisted E&P operator’s decision making with bespoke analysis of their operations to value-add sales o Delivered technical reports and presentations, which required importing and cleaning drilling and subsurface logs into Excel, looking for correlations and making sense of highly ambiguous data, running statistical analysis and generating meaningful insightso Developed expertise in almost every type of drilling application which clients relied upon for advice, ie. conventional, shale/coal seam gas/tight gas, mining, sequestration and geothermal o Required constant appraisal of industry papers to form technical opinions and for citations• Interfaced between field operations and product line engineering for drilling tools developmento Implemented CAD / CFD / FEA skills in 54 bespoke drill bit product design projects• Developed detailed failure analysis reports to drive product reliability and service quality, in consultation and guidance from top industry experts in mechanical design & metallurgy• Studied to progress from Company Level 1 to Level 3 (Senior Engineer) through formal competency-based training program
