Angie Orabi

As a CAPM® certified Chemical Engineer with a strong foundation in project management and environmental engineering, I am committed to driving efficiency and sustainability within the pharmaceutical and biotech sectors. My academic and professional journey has equipped me with expertise in chemical processes, project execution, and sustainable practices, ranging from water treatment optimization to high-impact project management.

At CHAR Technologies, I managed a $10M GHG reduction project and collaborated with research institutions to enhance environmental testing. My hands-on experience with wastewater treatment at Al Etihad Biwater Wastewater Company deepened my commitment to sustainable engineering solutions, while my technical internship solidified my data analysis and quality assurance skills.

Beyond technical roles, I thrive in leadership positions, as demonstrated by my presidency of uOpoetry, where I fostered a thriving creative community. My certifications in project management and data analysis, alongside my volunteer experiences, reflect my proactive approach to professional and personal growth. I am driven to make a positive impact through innovative and sustainable engineering solutions.

With diverse experience across project management, engineering, and environmental sustainability, my career reflects a dedication to technical precision and strategic leadership.

Project Manager, CHAR Technologies Ltd.
In this role, I led the development of a $10M High-Temperature Pyrolysis plant aimed at reducing GHG emissions, securing $30M in funding for environmental projects with Indigenous communities, and achieving significant gains in process efficiency and vendor accountability.

Production Technician, Siemens Healthineers
At Siemens, I contributed to optimizing the production of blood analysis systems, implementing meticulous quality control protocols, and enhancing production efficiency by 25%.

Process Engineering Intern, Al Etihad Biwater Wastewater Company
My internship in Abu Dhabi focused on optimizing sewage treatment processes and chemical feed efficiency, contributing to a 20% reduction in chemical waste.

Volunteer Leadership
Throughout my university years, I served as President of uOpoetry and held various other leadership roles, demonstrating my organizational and community-building skills. These experiences have honed my ability to lead teams, manage projects, and contribute meaningfully to collaborative goals.

I hold a BASc in Chemical Engineering with an Environmental Engineering option from the University of Ottawa, where I gained hands-on experience in process modeling, environmental assessments, and advanced chemical engineering techniques. My academic projects included optimizing chemical plant designs, leading energy efficiency initiatives, and developing sustainable solutions.

To complement my technical background, I have pursued a series of professional certifications, including the Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM)® and the Atlassian Agile Project Management Professional Certificate. These credentials strengthen my skills in Agile methodologies, project coordination, and data-driven decision-making. Additionally, I have earned the Career Essentials in Data Analysis certification by Microsoft & LinkedIn, enhancing my proficiency in data analytics and visualization.

My educational journey, coupled with practical experience and a dedication to continuous learning, fuels my commitment to advancing sustainable engineering practices in the biotech and environmental sectors.
