Available to hire
I am a senior mechanical engineer with 10 years’ experience. My skillset includes project management, ingenuity, mechanical design and industrial engineering experience. I have a comprehensive knowledge of mechanical and electrical component specification and supply resources, with comprehensive design for manufacturing knowledge and a mechanical design skillset spread through motors, transmission, linear and rotary motion, machine design, fixtures, tooling and CAM.
SolidWorks is my leading design software which I have immense experience and expertise in, I also create proposal assembly models using SolidWorks Visualize. I have a broad set of mechanical engineering skills but my primary focus is on design and the aesthetics of design, not solely functionality and efficiency. I am a very passionate sketcher with pencil and wish to combine my mechanically modelling design work with the atheistic of a more artistic approach.
