About
I'm a Mechanical and Industrial Engineer with hands-on experience in product design, assembly engineering, and manufacturability review within turbofan engine programs at a Tier 1 aerospace OEM.
My day-to-day work sits at the intersection of design and production — I review parts and assemblies not just for geometric correctness, but for how they will actually be manufactured, assembled, and maintained at scale. That's the judgment I bring to your project.
I currently work as a PLM Functional Architect on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform (ENOVIA), which means I also understand how engineering data, configurations, and change processes need to be structured — so I don't just deliver a model, I deliver clean, production-ready documentation.
What I can do for you:
Review your mechanical design for manufacturability (DFM/DFA) before you commit to tooling or suppliers
Deliver or refine 3D models and technical drawings in CATIA V5/V6 or SolidWorks
Assess turbomachinery components — impellers, blades, casings — with CFD insight using Fluent or CFturbo
Identify design risks early: tolerancing issues, assembly interference, material or process mismatches
Tools: CATIA V5/V6 · SolidWorks · ENOVIA/3DEXPERIENCE · Fluent · CFturbo · GD&T (ASME Y14.5)
Industries: Aerospace · Turbomachinery · Industrial Equipment · Hardware Startups
If you're a product company, a startup moving toward manufacturing, or an engineering team that needs a second set of senior eyes on a design — I'm the right person to call.
