About
I am a Mechanical Engineering professional in my final year at the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Valparaíso (PUCV), specializing in 3D CAD modeling, mechanical design, and product development. My core focus is transforming concepts into manufacturing-ready blueprints and complex functional assemblies using Autodesk Inventor.
Core Expertise & Skills:
- 3D CAD & Mechanical Design: Advanced 3D modeling, exploded views, and complex mechanical assemblies using Autodesk Inventor.
- Manufacturing Blueprints: Creation of precise, standard-compliant technical drawings (familiar with ISO and German DIN engineering standards).
- Product Development & Prototyping: From conceptualization to functional 3D models, including custom enclosures and DIY electronics integration.
- Technical Documentation: Rigorous engineering reporting, data analysis (MATLAB), and formatting (LaTeX).
Highlighted Projects & Experience:
- Automated Biaxial Mastication Simulator (Thesis Project): Currently designing and fabricating a complex biomechanical testing machine. This requires precise actuator integration, rigorous 3D modeling, and strict mechanical tolerances.
- Heavy Machinery Industry: Practical experience managing operations and technical documentation for mining equipment at Besalco, ensuring a real-world understanding of heavy-duty mechanical components.
I pride myself on a meticulous approach to engineering design, ensuring every dimension, constraint, and tolerance is optimized for real-world manufacturing. Whether you need a single part modeled for 3D printing or a complex mechanical system drafted for production, I deliver accurate, reliable, and professional results.
