Dear Dr. Marks:
I am a process engineer skilled in optimizing operations to increase efficiency. I would like to bring my collective experience and success to the process engineer position you are currently advertising, specifically contributing the following to Roland Enterprises.
- Experience in plastic formulations; advanced proficiency in ChemCAD.
- Aptitude for leading collaborative processing efforts that align with company goals and objectives and seek to identify optimal strategies for production efforts.
- Advanced training and field experience in biochemical engineering, applied mathematics, materials science, fluid mechanics, and chemical process design.
During my 4+ years as a production line worker at Krill Industries, I have led efforts responsible for increasing operational efficiency by over 33% while maintaining high quality production and assembly of parts. Prior to that, as an intern for Pertland Industries, I completed a comprehensive technical review of company operations, identifying and eliminating safety hazards and production inefficiencies, the latter improving production output by 12%. As your process engineer position requires expertise similar to mine, I believe I would serve Roland Enterprises well in this role.
I would appreciate an opportunity to meet with you to further discuss my process engineering experience at your earliest convenience. I may be reached at 555.555.5555 or via email at kathleen.rogers@email.com. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Kathleen Rogers
