Hello! I’m Clecio Paula, a resourceful Industrial Engineer with 20+ years of experience in maintenance, robotics, and process engineering. I love turning complex challenges into practical, value-adding solutions and guiding teams toward continuous improvement. Over the last five years in Portugal I focused on manufacturing engineering, product development, and process optimization, leading cross-functional initiatives and delivering measurable efficiency gains. Now I’m seeking opportunities to continue applying my skills in robotics, manufacturing, and continuous improvement in a dynamic environment.
