What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to leverage my engineering expertise while fostering innovation and collaboration in a dynamic environment.

I am a dedicated mechanical engineer with a strong background in design and project management. My journey began at the Polytechnic University of Tirana, where I earned my Bachelor's and Master's degrees in Mechanical Engineering, specializing in the energy sector. I have hands-on experience in designing HVAC systems and developing prototypes for CNC machines, which has honed my technical skills in software like AutoCAD and Solidworks.

Throughout my career, I have taken on various roles, from a design engineer in France to a service advisor and technical director at Auto Star Albania, where I manage service operations and ensure customer satisfaction. My passion for teaching has led me to my current position as a lecturer at the German Vocational College of Technology, where I share my knowledge in energy systems and internal combustion engines.
