What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a position where I can start my professional career, apply my knowledge as a design engineer, simulations (FEA), materials science in projects that generate value and have a high impact.

I’m a mechanical engineering student at Universidad Pontificia Bolivariana, and I’ve led the Human Powered Vehicle Project (FALCON UPB) for three years. I coordinated and managed a 20-member team, aligning roles, tasks, and schedules to achieve strategic goals.

I bring strong hands-on engineering capability: I performed technical tuning and optimization of competition vehicles to meet rigorous standards. I use CAD/CAM and advanced engineering tools to streamline development, including design methodologies that improved project efficiency, plus technical work like high-precision component design and manufacturing.

My work has been recognized in competitive settings—I was a First Place finalist in the EIA 2023 Regional Human-Powered Vehicle Competition and placed across regional and national events. I also documented a graduate thesis on a robotic welding line project at TECHNICAL SKILLS Incolmotos Yamaha, and I’m known for assertive communication, conflict resolution, and reliable teamwork.
