KenyaWhat I'm looking for
I am a Design Engineer with extensive experience in mechanical and structural design, utilizing tools such as AutoCAD, SolidWorks, and Inventor. My expertise lies in producing construction drawings and working with sheet metal fabrication, where I apply design for manufacture and assembly (DFMA) principles. I have been involved in complete product development cycles, from concept to delivery, ensuring that every project meets the highest standards of quality and efficiency.
Throughout my career, I have demonstrated proficiency in preparing estimations, performing hand calculations, and collaborating with cross-functional teams. My recent role as a Customer Consultant Engineer at ALUMIL Systems East Africa allowed me to enhance my skills in producing construction and shop drawings while developing Excel templates that reduced drawing and estimation time by 30%. I am passionate about sustainable technologies, particularly in maritime applications, and I am eager to contribute my knowledge and skills to innovative projects.
