Work Experience
Akvo International Limited, Kampala, Uganda
Field Services & Workshop Manager
Supervise at least 10 Technicians and 7 Engineers to design, install and maintain field irrigation systems; schedule irrigation system Installation jobs for at least 50 clients monthly, including weekly field follow-up visits to upcountry sites, and; Manage technical, schedule, and budget aspects of between UGX 120 million and UGX 6 billion irrigation projects, etc.
Akvo International Limited, Kampala, Uganda
Field Service Engineer
I successfully completed over 250 irrigation system designs, following recommended engineering standards. One notable achievement was the development of an 18-acre hybrid solar irrigation system that combines drip and sprinkler technologies. Over a span of 6 months, I also managed more than 200 irrigation and solar projects, planned and executed 70 irrigation engineering designs, to meet both technical and legal requirements, and as part of a collaborative team, installed 50 irrigation systems in just one month.
WATESO - Multipurpose Cooperative, Amuria, Uganda
Irrigation Engineer
I led a UGX 250 million project in the Amuria district, where I conceptualized, designed, and constructed micro-irrigation systems for 55 farmers. I conducted public lectures through radio talk shows, farmer targeted workshops, and community sessions in Teso sub-region, demystifying the concept of irrigation . I also managed five cooperative irrigation farms, helping boost water use efficiency by 10%, and reducing the need for repairs. I also collaborated with the Amuria district technical team to provide technical support to other cooperatives and farmers.
