Omar Chavez

“I worked with Omar at Tesla Motors for about 20 months. He's a very hands on manufacturing engineer with extensive knowledge on automation and process improvement. We worked on several projects together and made substantial improvements in Tesla's paint process. He has in depth knowledge on robotics especially Fanuc robots and numerous application equipment. He's a very good team player and a great mentor. He will be an asset for any company he works for.”

“I have the good fortune of having Omar assigned to one of my projects in India. Omar provided the path programming for the prime and topcoat painting systems for the Chevy Spark. We walked into this project that was at least three months behind schedule. Of course, the greatest concern in a paint shop is the automation that applies the final finish the customer sees. I must tell you I had grave concerns that FANUC (Omar and his team) would be able to pull a rabbit out of their hat and launch this equipment within their contractual obligations. Well...they did it! They completed the prime installation and one day later they painted a unit that would pass any automotive quality inspection with flying colors. I set the bar even higher with the topcoat automation. They aced it! Literally they saved the day with their preparation and proactive response to our needs. Omar was a key player in this accomplishment. Without his skills and experience, there is no way we could have pulled this off. I would highly recommend Omar for any project. I hope to work with him once again.”

“The intensity that Omar brings to his work is second only to his commitment to perform at the highest level. Integrity, professional and trustworthy are words that come to mind when reviewing our time spent working together on a $30 million dollar international project.”

“Omar is an excellent automation engineer with multiple skills and strong customer management skills.”

“I had the pleasure of having Omar on my team for a project in India in 2008. Besides his talent as a process engineer, his ability to set the customer at ease and to demonstrate patience makes the task easier for any project manager. I would gladly welcome Omar on my team for any future project, especially for the fact that he is willing to work outside his comfort zone as the need inevitably arises with international assignments.”

“I was a year behind Omar in school and he was a great mentor. His leadership skills were evident to all of us who were members of Society of Plastics Engineers when he was president of that club.”
