Throughout my engineering career, of more than 10 years of experience, I developed a solid technical expertise in the design of mechanical systems and the management of projects. Acting as project manager, I worked in close proximity with all engineering departments involved in the product development cycle. Within this multidisciplinary environment, I acquired a macro understanding of the process and phases of development, which contributed to my strategic thinking. The opportunity to lead teams, interact directly with clients and subcontractors, were essential experiences that allowed me to develop a set of soft skills that strongly complemented my technical expertise and resulted on a well rounded professional profile.
