Textile Engineer specializing in mechanical textile recycling, traceability, and sustainability certification compliance across the supply chain.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Textile Engineer specialized in mechanical textile recycling, open-end spinning, and sustainability certification management. I build strong systems for traceability and compliance, translating regulatory and client requirements into day-to-day operational control.
In my work, I coordinate brand compliance audits and manage certifications, traceability processes, and Due Diligence across the supply chain. I focus on identifying non-conformities, implementing corrective actions, and ensuring product and process compliance with international standards including GOTS, GRS, RCS, OCS, and BCI.
I’m also motivated by continuous improvement and knowledge-sharing—supporting structured training through documentation such as operational and cleaning manuals used to standardize workflows. Alongside technical responsibility, I’ve led student and committee initiatives, helping coordinate activities and formal processes that strengthen collaboration, communication, and production-chain accountability.
