Work Experience
Reliability Engineering Intern
VPC Group Inc.
- Assisted in the implementation of a tote-based chemical offloading system aligned with Pre-Start Health and Safety Review (PSR) requirements under Ontario Regulation 851.
- Reviewed and updated P&IDs (Piping & Instrumentation Diagrams) to reflect current piping configurations and support future safety/maintenance assessments.
- Reviewed rack system certifications and safety documentation for compliance with CSA S136, S345, and A344 standards during the implementation of a tote-based chemical offloading system.
- Analyzed MSDS sheets, PPE requirements, and spill containment procedures as part of chemical safety planning and compliance efforts.
- Collaborated with engineers and contractors during installation/commissioning phases and supported Joint Health & Safety Committee (JHSC) documentation.
- Verified field conditions against piping layouts and CMMS data to identify documentation gaps and support reliability updates.
Maintenance Engineering Intern
VPC Group Inc.
- Managed preventive maintenance programs across 15 sites using Limble CMMS, scheduling inspections, automating recurring tasks, and tracking asset history to minimize equipment downtime.
- Digitized and organized spare parts inventory by identifying critical components, assigning storage locations, and integrating associated bill of materials with minimum stock levels into Limble.
- Integrated new production lines into CMMS by creating preventive maintenance schedules, registering equipment, and linking spare parts to support servicing workflows.
- Analyzed inspection trends and maintenance history within Limble CMMS to identify recurring faults in motors, belts, and sensors, supporting audit readiness and proactive servicing.
- Verified equipment condition and spare part requirements during field walkthroughs for preventive maintenance tasks, ensuring CMMS records matched actual site conditions.
