Gabriel Ávila
@gabrielvila
Aeronautical engineering candidate focused on mechanical design and improvement.
What I'm looking for
I am an aeronautical engineering student and mechanical design engineer with hands-on experience in the full product development lifecycle within the automotive industry. I currently develop and analyze 3D models and structural components to meet Category B industry standards while producing technical reports that streamline collaboration between design and validation teams.
My technical foundation includes CAD/CAE tools (CATIA V6, Siemens NX, SolidWorks), structural analysis principles, and an understanding of thermodynamic cycles and internal combustion engine operation. I combine this with process-improvement training—Lean Six Sigma Green Belt in progress—and practical exposure to PLM and automation tools.
I seek to apply my skills in propulsion systems, mechanical design, and continuous improvement to solve technical and managerial challenges in aerospace and defense, bringing strong teamwork, project management, and reporting abilities to deliver timely, quality results.
