About
I am a Mechanical Design Engineer with a Master's degree from Leibniz Universität Hannover, specializing in the development of robust and efficient mechanical systems. My core strength lies in bridging the gap between complex design requirements and practical, manufacturable solutions.
My experience includes the complete product development lifecycle: from initial concept and 3D modeling to engineering calculations, technical drawings, and even test rig design. I am proficient in a range of CAD software, including Siemens NX, Creo, and SolidWorks, and use MATLAB and Python for design analysis and automation.
I have a strong track record of designing machine elements such as bearings, gears, and shafts (IMKT), creating precise 3D CAD models from point cloud data (IPH), and building complex test rigs for axial turbines (TFD). My background in FEA simulation (Abaqus) and CFD (ANSYS CFX, OpenFOAM) allows me to validate and optimize designs before they are built, saving time and cost.
Whether you need a detailed 3D model, a complete technical drawing package, or a design that is optimized for performance, I deliver high-quality work with a focus on precision and reliability. Let's discuss how I can help bring your next project to life.
