NTWALI MUTAONA Samuel

Electrical Power Engineer • PV • SCADA/Automation • Data Science

I design and deliver reliable power and solar PV solutions, and I integrate automation and data for smarter systems.

I am a Civil Electrical Engineer specialized in power systems and electromechanical installations, registered with the National Order of Civil Engineers (ONICIV No. ONICIV01278). I work on electrical design (HV/MV/LV), building services (HVAC, fire detection, CCTV), PV systems (small installations and large PV plants), and SCADA/PLC automation using LabVIEW and Siemens S7 (TIA Portal). I also apply data science and machine learning with Python and MATLAB to support preventive maintenance and fault detection in PV systems.

About

I combine field-ready engineering with clear documentation: calculations, drawings, specifications, and reports that can be implemented and audited.

What I do

From study to execution, I contribute to electrical and renewable energy projects, and I integrate automation and monitoring to improve reliability.

Electrical design: HV/MV/LV, power and low-current systems
Building services: HVAC sizing, fire detection, CCTV
PV engineering: sizing, layout, implementation planning
Instrumentation: sensor data acquisition and storage (SQL/MySQL)

How I work

I work independently or under pressure, with strong organization and planning skills, always focused on deliverables and results.
