Hi, I’m Luís Gonçalves, a 25-year-old product design professional from Braga, Portugal. I hold a degree in Product Design and a postgraduate qualification in Product Engineering. I currently work at LFM Corporate on DreambooksPro as a product designer and solutions engineer, driving the development cycle from concept to production with a focus on design-to-cost, industrial optimisation and user experience. I translate production constraints into technical solutions, validate materials with production teams, and manage material, supplier and launch decisions to align user needs with business and manufacturing realities. I also work on product management, turning complex problems into practical, scalable products and collaborating with cross-functional teams using tools like Figma, 3D modelling and Adobe Creative Cloud. My strengths include autonomy, systems thinking and turning complex problems into practical solutions.
