Senior🎓
Top SchoolChristian Barrera is a Project & Controls Engineer with 11 years of experience at the nexus of sustainability, process optimization, and data engineering. With a Master's in Mechanical Engineering focused on geothermal energy from the University of Iceland, he relocated to Reykjavik to work hands-on in renewables and direct air capture, helping certify high-quality carbon removal and commission the world’s largest DAC plant. He combines strong SQL and Python skills with practical automation experience—from building daily shipping reports and barcoding systems to maintaining ETL pipelines with Airflow and dbt—delivering measurable labor and inventory savings. Comfortable in both operations and data roles, he pairs real-time process analysis with MRV rigor to improve plant performance and auditability. Fluent in translating engineering constraints into data-driven controls, he’s now leveraging that blend at Planeteers to scale sustainable technologies.
