Based in Houston, Daniel supports the commercial team with technical insight and engineering expertise across Bardex’s heavy-lift and positioning systems. His experience spans initial engineering calculations and concepts, proposal development, and cost estimates, along with a deep understanding of offshore operations and system performance.

Prior to joining Bardex, Daniel held engineering roles with Aker Solutions and The Shearer Group, where he led risk-based assessments, supported major offshore clients like bp, and contributed to vessel design and commissioning.

“No two projects are exactly alike. That’s why our sales process starts with listening-understanding each client’s challenges, constraints, and goals – and using that insight to develop a solution that fits. We don’t force clients to adapt to us. We engineer solutions that fit them.”
