Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJoseph Despain is an engineer and project manager with 11 years of hands-on experience delivering mechanical and petroleum engineering solutions across the U.S., from biogas processing skids in West Texas to fuel terminal development in Nevada. He blends field-focused project leadership—bidding, fabrication, commissioning, and turnaround support—with technical skills in Python, AutoCAD, CAD/REVIT markup, and networking, enabling smoother handoffs between design and construction teams. A Texas A&M petroleum engineering alumnus with an MS in Natural Gas Engineering & Management from the University of Oklahoma, he has navigated both lab research and large-scale industrial projects, including work for high-profile institutional builds. Notably comfortable switching between shop-floor supervision and technical proposal development, he brings practical troubleshooting experience (computer repair and systems setup) that helps de-risk complex site work. Based in Utah, he’s equally at home specifying heat exchangers and valves as he is producing CAD deliverables and cost schedules.
