I am Guilherme Moreira de Alcantara Filho, a product designer with 30 years of product development experience. Born in Curitiba, Brazil, I have lived in Joinville since 2002, working with major appliance and automotive brands such as Whirlpool Appliances, Britania, and Denso. I specialize in CAD with Creo, 3D modeling, sheet metal, plastic injection molds, and prototyping, and I’ve developed parts for automotive, electro-portable, and household appliances. I have six patents granted, including one international, and I’ve gained valuable experience developing products for the North American market through opportunities in the USA, including work on burners for Whirlpool in St. Joe, Michigan. In 2013 I participated in an Innovation event to create range proposals for the North American market and contributed to burner development for Whirlpool in St. Joe, MI.
