At Faurecia, I lead seating foam design and development across RSA-PSA programs, from RFQ and concept through tooling, validation, serial release, and engineering changes. I currently support European programs including VW SMALL BEV, RSA-FLEXEVAN, and RSA-DZ110.

I've delivered foam, plastic, and complete-seat DMU work for Renault, PSA, Lamborghini, and Audi projects, including a one-year onsite assignment in Germany. I manage CAD and E-BOM data, design reviews, DFMEA, quality, customer discussions, and team training using CATIA V5 and Magellan-Tiger.
