UK-based Mechanical Design Engineer with 4+ years of specialist experience in pressure vessel design, heat exchanger engineering, FEA simulation, and structural analysis for oil & gas, chemical, and manufacturing clients. I deliver code-compliant engineering to ASME BPVC Section VIII (Div.1 & Div.2), PD 5500, AISC 360, and ASCE 7. Every deliverable — from design calculations and FEA reports to fabrication drawings — is produced to client-approval standard. What I offer on a per-project basis: • Pressure vessel & heat exchanger design (ASME / PD 5500) with PV Elite calculations • FEA using ANSYS — static structural, thermal, fatigue, modal • 3D CAD modelling and manufacturing drawings in SolidWorks 2023 • Structural skid, support & lifting lug design to AISC/ASCE • Pipe stress analysis and P&ID/PFD development • AVEVA E3D plant modelling I work remotely and accept fixed-price project briefs worldwide. Deliverables include calculation packages, marked-up drawings, FEA reports, and material specifications ready for client submission. CEng pathway (IMechE) in progress. Full availability for repeat project work.

I’m a UK-based Mechanical Design Engineer and founder of Lister Design Engineering Ltd, with over 14 years’ experience in mechanical design and a practical background as an apprentice-trained fabricator and welder. I help businesses turn ideas, sketches and existing designs into detailed 3D CAD models and clear manufacturing drawings. My background in fabrication helps me develop practical designs that consider how components will be manufactured, assembled and maintained. Using SolidWorks, Autodesk Inventor and AutoCAD, I offer: • 3D CAD modelling of parts and assemblies • 2D manufacturing and fabrication drawings • Sheet metal and welded fabrication design • Mechanical equipment and machinery design • Pressure equipment, tanks and pipework design • Drawing updates, modifications and conversion to CAD • Bills of materials, design reviews and drawing checking My experience spans manufacturing, special purpose machinery, pressure equipment and engineering projects supporting aerospace, water and nuclear applications. I hold a BEng (Hons) in Mechanical Engineering and am a Certified SolidWorks Professional (CSWP). Whether you need a single component modelled, a drawing package prepared or ongoing design support, I bring clear communication, attention to detail and a practical approach. Feel free to get in touch to discuss your project.
