I am a senior mechanical engineering product designer, specialist in 3D CAD design and FEA of sheet metal and heavy steel fabrication with 16 years of experience. I am passionate about CAD design and analysis, with strong focus on technical documentation and drawing detail accuracy. This includes 3D and 2D fabrication and assembly drawings in Solid Works, Creo (including Windchill) and Inventor (including Vault) as well as considerable FEA experience (Including ANSYS non-linear). I have designed a wide variety of product across many sub disciplines of mechanical engineering (Structures, driveline, suspension, hydraulics, composites… etc.). I have successfully taken many complex projects from concept to production, often reducing complexity and yielding significant cost savings all while complying with the relevant international standards.

I am a civil engineer that worked for Zutari (previously Aurecon) as a Water Engineer. I worked with the design and project management teams on various water projects where my role included, hydraulic designs, cost analysis, feasibility studies and Bim modelling. I have gained experience working with various software such as C3D, Revit and Infraworks. This has given me ample time to develop a strong work ethic necessary for work in the field. Previously I worked for AECOM ZA where I have had extensive site experience and built strong competencies in inspection, report writing and people’s management. I worked on the Temba water purification plant phase 6 (TWPP-6) and Mooi Mgeni transfer scheme phase 2 (MMTS-2). Working on various aspects of the TWPP-6 and MMTS-2 has given me a great appreciation and insight into the importance of Water and Environmental Engineering in the future of any developing country. As an Engineering inspector and water Engineer I have developed flexibility by being required to inspect multiple disciplines under construction supervision such as buildings and civils works on various water purification structures, pump stations, substations, pipe chambers precast yard and housing platforms. I have also done a good deal of pipe line inspection involving monitoring, clearing, excavation, laying of bedding material, pipe laying, backfilling, lining and coating pipes, mechanical installations, and commissioning. I was fortunate to gain valuable insight and exposure as student whilst working on the Spring Grove Dam under BKS Consulting. I worked in the laboratory for two weeks doing certain lab tests as well as the evaluation of the results. I assisted with the inspection of RCC as well as the reinforced concrete for the intake structure. I also monitored the design of the layer works for the roads and the design and construction of the earth embankment. The time spent with BKS Consulting allowed me the opportunity to monitor drawings and designs as well as practice on Auto CAD.

I have been placed in multiple positions of responsibility throughout my academic career. I have successfully served my term as Head Prefect in my high school, Al-Falaah college (a school that boasts the highest scoring matric results nationally in the year 2016). I have been a campus tutor for Mathematics, Thermodynamics and Physics and I have been allocated the highest budgeted masters research project in the history of UKZN's Aerospace Systems Research Group (ASReG). I am proficient in Solidworks CAD modelling, Simulation execution (FEA, CFD and topology optimization). My Masters has allowed me to efficiently mathematically model systems in Microsoft Excel, predict motion and analyse trends. I have presented graphical analysis of data to a wide variety of audiences both within and out of the engineering space. I am a part of the Phoenix Hybrid Sounding Rocket launch campaign as a member of the ground support team where I am responsible for the rocket lug design and oxidizer measurement systems.
