About

Hi there! I’m Ryan Meyer, a Senior Mechanical Designer with over 15 years of hands-on experience in 3D modelling, drafting, and manufacturing support. I love turning complex ideas into practical, manufacturable designs and enjoy collaborating with engineers, fabricators, and project teams to keep projects on track and aligned with goals.

I’ve worked across South Africa and offshore environments, delivering detailed 3D models, presentation renders, and design workshops. I’m proactive, detail-oriented, and always looking for opportunities to improve designs for performance, manufacturability, and cost efficiency.
