Senior Design Engineer with over 20 years of hands-on expertise specializing in mechanical drafting, 3D parametric modeling, and Design for Manufacturability (DFM). I act as the critical bridge between a conceptual idea and a machine shop floor, translating design requirements into highly structured, error-free engineering data. My core competencies focus deeply on heavy-duty sheet metal fabrication, structural component configuration, complex parametric assemblies, and top-down product layout. I excel at capturing empirical shop-floor data—such as bend allowances, material stretch factors, and tooling constraints—and embedding those rules directly into automated, robust parametric models and Excel-linked variable trees. Core Philosophies: Design for Reality: I design with a deep respect for actual shop equipment, ensuring parts are optimized for laser/plasma cutting, multi-roll plate forming, and press brake limitations. Parametric Integrity: I build fully constrained parametric assemblies with clean feature history trees, ensuring models can adapt dynamically without breaking down when a variable changes. Shop-Ready Documentation: I deliver meticulously detailed 2D fabrication drawings utilizing standard Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T), explicit weldment callouts, clean section views, and exact flat patterns to eliminate guesswork on the production floor. Platform Deployment: Primary Platform: Siemens Solid Edge. Expert in structured, history-based Ordered parametric modeling, high-density assembly design, and production-ready detailing. SolidWorks Integration: Extensively experienced in the SolidWorks ecosystem. Fully capable of delivering high-fidelity, neutral-format geometry (STEP, IGES, Parasolid) optimized for flawless import and reconstruction within client SolidWorks environments. Licensing & Infrastructure: Native SolidWorks development is readily available for contracts where the client provides platform licensing, secure VPN, or VDI workstation access.

Mechanical Engineer | Fusion 360 Expert | Product Design & Manufacturing-Ready CAD I am a **Mechanical Engineer specializing in Autodesk Fusion 360**, focused on turning ideas, sketches, existing parts, and technical requirements into **accurate, functional, and manufacturing-ready CAD designs**. My goal is not simply to create a 3D model that looks good on screen. I design with **real-world functionality, manufacturability, assembly, tolerances, materials, production methods, and future design changes** in mind. Whether you need a single mechanical component, a complete assembly, a prototype-ready product, production drawings, or an existing design improved for manufacturing, I can take your project from **concept to production-ready CAD**. I work extensively with the **native professional capabilities of Autodesk Fusion 360**, creating clean, editable, fully parametric designs without relying on third-party plug-ins or add-ins. This makes project files easier to transfer, modify, maintain, and continue developing after delivery.

This includes: * Existing part reconstruction * STL / mesh to editable CAD * Legacy drawing to modern 3D CAD * Measurement-based modeling * Replacement part modeling * Design modification and improvement Design for 3D Printing * FDM-friendly mechanical parts * Prototype components * Functional printed assemblies * STL preparation * Clearance and tolerance consideration * Print-oriented geometry optimization * Support-conscious design * Rapid-prototyping models CNC & CAM Preparation For suitable projects, I can support the transition from CAD into Fusion 360's integrated manufacturing workflow, including machining-oriented model preparation and CAM-ready geometry. Rendering & Product Presentation When needed, I can also create: * Professional product renders * Material and appearance setups * Exploded product presentations * Technical visualizations * Product concept images * Assembly animations and motion presentations Why Work With Me? Engineering First — Not Just CAD Modeling A CAD model should not only look correct. It should also make sense mechanically. I approach every project from a **mechanical engineering perspective**, considering: * Function * Geometry * Manufacturability * Assembly * Mechanical clearances * Design intent * Material usage * Production constraints * Maintainability * Future revisions Fully Parametric & Editable Models Whenever appropriate, models are built with a clean parametric structure so dimensions and design features can be modified efficiently instead of rebuilding the entire part. Manufacturing-Oriented Workflow I aim to identify potential production problems before they become expensive manufacturing problems. The objective is always to provide a design that is as close as
