Hi, I’m José Antonio Gallegos Jones, a Senior CAD and Industrial Designer with over 15 years of experience delivering advanced design solutions for industrial, mining, and mega-projects. I specialize in fabrication-ready 3D models and detailed drawings that integrate smoothly with manufacturing and construction workflows. I’m proficient in AutoCAD, SolidWorks, and Revit, and I apply BIM methodologies (ISO 19650) to improve coordination and data management across multidisciplinary teams. I’m hands-on and collaborative, leading CAD teams, mentoring colleagues, and coordinating with engineering, construction, and operations to ensure constructability, compliance, and efficiency from concept through handover. I thrive in cross-disciplinary settings and enjoy turning complex requirements into practical, buildable solutions.
