Efficiency and optimization focused CAD Designer with experience creating fully parametric, optimized for manufacturing ready designs and production drawings. With over 7 years experience designing products of different niches, I have become a versatile CAD designer with expertise in multiple sectors including sheet metal, fibre laser cutting, sheet metal bending, CNC milling and CNC turning as well as 3D printed enclosures for outdoor applications. Software that I've worked with: - Autodesk Inventor - Autodesk Inventor CAM Suite - AutoCAD - Autodesk Fusion 360 - Ultimaker Cura - Keyshot Tasks / roles that I can fulfil: - Drafter / Drafting Tasks - Product Design - Sheet metal and bending designer - Reverse Engineer / Reverse Engineering - CAD Design - DFM / Design For Manufacturing - Design for 3D printing - Design for CNC Machining and CNC Turning - Design for Injection Moulding I was involved in: - Creating flat patterns for laser cutting, - Bend drawings for the bending team, - Assembly instructions for the assemblers - Steel tube cut list's for the manufacturing team, - Designing parts and then programming and running them on our CNC milling machine, - Designing optimised parts for 3D printing - Keeping an eye open for design optimisations in general I refined my skills further with my time working hands on with the production process, seeing and deeply understanding the processes involved in building your final product. This has taught me to always imagine the assembly process and keep an eye out for any design choices that could make manufacturing more difficult or downright impossible. My hands on experience comes from spending time working on a Sheet Metal Fibre laser, producing the flat parts for assembly as well as hand on assembly in an IoT device that was manufactured using 3D printing.

I'm a design draftsman with deep experience across the drawing office, specialising in PCB layout and 3D mechanical CAD. Most of my career has been spent translating engineering intent into clean, manufacturable drawings — board layouts, mechanical detail, assembly documentation, and the full data packages that fabricators and assembly houses actually need to build from. On the electronics side I've laid out multilayer boards up to 16 layers, including RF, high-speed digital, and analog work for GPS/GSM tracking units, high-resolution camera systems, and satellite hardware. On the mechanical side I produce 3D models, enclosures, and detailed production drawings. I work fluently in Altium Designer, P-CAD, CAM350, AutoCAD, and SolidWorks. What I bring to a project is a draftsman's discipline: accurate, complete, manufacturing-ready documentation, with a strong eye for design-for-manufacture so problems get caught on the drawing board, not on the production line.

I am a qualified pattern maker with 16 years of SolidWorks experience, specialising in sand casting pattern design for both green sand and chemically bonded processes. My work covers the full casting method — from initial 3D pattern design through to runner and riser systems, gating layout, core boxes, and parting line definition. Every pattern I design starts from the end result — the finished casting — and works backwards. Machining datums, stock allowances, core prints, gating and feeding are not added at the end, they are built into the design from the first line. This is not a process I follow. It is how I think. I use Altair Inspire Cast to simulate and validate casting methods prior to pattern manufacture — confirming fill behaviour, identifying potential shrinkage porosity, and optimising riser placement before any tooling cost is committed. This gives clients confidence that the method is sound before production begins. I have designed patterns for iron, steel, stainless, chrome alloys, brass, and bronze across mining equipment, automotive, pumps and valves, agricultural machinery, rail, and general engineering. Beyond pattern design I bring broader manufacturing capability — machine shop experience means I understand downstream machining requirements and design casting datums and stock accordingly. I hold a qualification as an Internal ISO Auditor, giving me working knowledge of quality management systems relevant to foundry and manufacturing environments. On the machining side I have hands-on Mastercam experience programming CNC routers for pattern production, including pattern boards, wooden patterns, foam and polystyrene patterns. If you need someone who understands what happens after the file leaves the screen — I have stood on the foundry floor and seen it through to the casting.
