About
I am a Senior Mechanical Design Engineer and Project Lead with over 10 years of experience in designing and developing specialized machinery for the food processing and packaging industry. My expertise spans end‑to‑end mechanical design, 3D modeling, 2D drafting, BOM creation, and applying GD&T standards to deliver precision engineering solutions that meet international quality and safety standards.
I have advanced proficiency in CAD/PDM tools including SolidWorks, Autodesk Inventor, AutoCAD, SolidWorks PDM, and Autodesk Vault, enabling me to streamline workflows, automate design processes, and maintain data integrity across complex projects. Over the years, I have successfully led teams of up to 10 engineers, mentoring them through the full project lifecycle — from concept development to manufacturing release.
My global exposure includes on‑site project collaboration in Japan and specialized technical training in the USA, equipping me with strong cross‑cultural communication skills and the ability to coordinate seamlessly with international clients. I have contributed to the design of automated packaging lines, hot plate welding machines, and high‑speed bakery equipment, consistently delivering innovative solutions that enhance production efficiency.
Clients value my combination of technical expertise, project management skills, and business ethics. Whether it’s optimizing manufacturing processes, designing hygienic food machinery components, or managing cross‑functional teams, I bring a results‑driven approach with a commitment to quality, safety, and on‑time delivery.
