I’m Gian Luca Ramírez, a Mechanical 3D Designer and Mechatronics Engineer with 5+ years of hands-on experience in CAD modeling, technical drawings, and standards-compliant design documentation for manufacturing environments. As Lead Designer at Eaton Corporation, I drive precision CAD work for prototypes and series production, applying ASME Y14.5, ISO 13715, and ANSI/ASME standards, GD&T, tolerance stack-up analysis, and DFM/DFA to optimize designs for real-world manufacturing. I also apply parametric workflows and SolidWorks PDM for robust revision control, delivering production-ready documentation on time, whether on a full-time role or as a freelancer.

Work Experience

Lead Designer / Mechanical Design Engineer and Drafting at Eaton Corporation
September 1, 2024 - Present
Develop and manage precise CAD models, assemblies, and technical drawings for prototypes and series production, ensuring compliance with ASME Y14.5, ISO 13715, and ANSI/ASME standards. Apply GD&T controls — true position, flatness, perpendicularity, runout, and profile of a surface — with proper feature control frames and datum references, producing drawings ready for manufacturing and inspection. Conduct tolerance stack-up analyses using worst-case linear and RSS methods to verify assembly closure across all combinations of part variation. Apply DFM and DFA principles to optimize designs for production efficiency, reducing manufacturing cost while maintaining specification compliance. Update and refine existing designs through parametric workflows using equations, design tables, and configurations; manage design data via SolidWorks PDM with structured check-in/check-out and revision control protocols. Collaborate with cross-functional engineering, manufacturing, and quality teams
Design Analyst at Nesplas S.A.
April 1, 2022 - July 1, 2024
Developed and managed CAD models and technical documentation for plastic injection-molded parts, molds, and production machinery using SolidWorks and AutoCAD. Applied injection molding DFM principles: draft angle verification, wall thickness uniformity, rib-to-wall ratios, parting line optimization, gate location, and undercut identification. Performed fit and tolerance analyses per ISO 286, specifying fits such as H7/g6 for running clearance and H7/p6 for interference connections between mold components. Refined existing models, incorporated design improvements, and ensured compliance with engineering standards across multiple concurrent product lines. Collaborated with tooling, production, and quality teams to deliver precise, production-ready solutions on schedule.
Project Designer at Agua Planeta Azul
February 1, 2023 - May 1, 2023
Collaborated with the maintenance team to implement a new production line, conducting site surveys and updating structural CAD plans. Coordinated maintenance work on metal and concrete structures and supported the plastics design team on plant-specific projects, ensuring compliance with design specifications and project timelines.
