About
I am an Aeronautical Engineer with 1 year 10 months of industry experience as a UAV Design Engineer, specializing in CAD modeling, product design, and prototyping. My work spans multirotors, fixed-wing, and hybrid VTOL UAVs, along with payload systems such as gimbals, propellers, and drop mechanisms.
Proficient in Fusion 360, SolidWorks, CATIA, and Onshape, I deliver precise 3D models, assemblies, engineering drawings, BOMs, and CAM files optimized for Design for Manufacturing (DFM). My hands-on expertise covers 3D printing (FDM, MJF, SLA), CNC machining, composite layup, and injection molding, enabling me to convert ideas into manufacturable products.
I also bring strong analytical skills with experience in aerodynamics, CFD, FEA, CG calculations, and structural analysis using Ansys, SimScale, and XFLR5, ensuring designs are efficient, reliable, and performance-ready.
I aim to provide high-quality, cost-effective CAD solutions for product design, prototyping, and UAV-focused projects. Let鈥檚 collaborate to turn your concepts into reality with precision and innovation.
