I am a Food Engineer with extensive experience in quality control, food safety, laboratory analysis, and production-process supervision within meat, dairy, oilseed, and manufacturing environments.
I have practical expertise in implementing and monitoring Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), Sanitation Standard Operating Procedures (SSOP/POES), and HACCP systems. I focus on ensuring compliance with food safety, quality, hygiene, and occupational safety requirements.
I perform physicochemical and microbiological analyses, including HPLC, fluorometry, and volumetric methods. I am experienced in monitoring critical process parameters, refrigeration conditions, environmental conditions, and product specifications.
I have supported national and international shipments and exports by maintaining analytical records, inspecting containers, verifying raw materials, and ensuring products meet physical, sensory, microbiological, and regulatory standards.
I am skilled in inventory oversight, productivity monitoring, technical reporting, process documentation, and training technical and operational personnel. I also have knowledge of Nicaraguan Technical Mandatory Standards (NTON), Central American Technical Regulations (RTCA), SAP, and cleaner production practices under the ECOPROFIT methodology.
Managed the distribution logistics of raw materials to different processing areas and supervised exported raw-material containers.
Controlled inventory for raw materials and miscellaneous supplies, including foreign-origin components such as templates, soles, threads, and tapes. Monitored process productivity and yield, preparing weekly and monthly performance reports for personnel and raw materials together with the process supervisor.
Supervised GMP, SSOP/POES, and HACCP compliance in meat-processing operations and operational areas. Coordinated with supervisors to maintain quality-management and sanitation systems.
Performed microbiological sampling and analysis of products according to internal requirements and IPSA regulations. Controlled product quality, occupational safety, infrastructure conditions, and national and international shipments.
Performed physicochemical analyses of milk and finished dairy products for quality-control purposes. Determined technical parameters including fat, acidity, moisture, salt, and stretchability during dairy production.
Monitored thermal conditions in refrigerated and frozen storage areas. Supervised exports to ensure compliance with physical, sensory, and microbiological standards.
Conducted specialized chemical analyses of food products and oils using HPLC, fluorometry, and volumetric techniques. Recorded and documented analytical results for export and import processes.
Managed reagents, calibrations, waste, and environmental conditions in laboratory technical areas. Applied sanitation operating procedures and prepared reports supporting analytical accreditation processes.
Monitored and implemented GMP, SSOP/POES, and HACCP programs in plant operational and external areas. Supervised pre-operational procedures, cattle stunning activities, and industrial infrastructure maintenance.
Collected meat samples for microbiological analysis required by IPSA. Coordinated quality control for packaging processes and national and international shipments.
