What I'm looking for

I'm looking for remote or global relocation roles where I lead code-compliant static equipment design (ASME, EN, AD) using PV Elite/Compress, as well as 3D CAD product design (Inventor/SolidWorks) for sheet metal & assemblies. Open to full-time, freelance, or contract.

I'm a Mechanical & Static Equipment Design Engineer with 7+ years of experience designing pressure vessels, heat exchangers, columns, and filtration/drying systems for pharmaceutical, oil & gas, and chemical industries. In addition to static equipment, I am equally skilled in general mechanical product design using 3D CAD (Autodesk Inventor, SolidWorks, AutoCAD) for sheet metal, machined parts, and assemblies. I build designs that are code-compliant and procurement-ready, leveraging ASME Section VIII with hands-on PV engineering software.

I work confidently across international standards, including AD 2000, EN 13445/PED, and AS 1210, and I've delivered European code projects using DIMy for AD 2000 vessels under PED. I validate critical parameters (thickness, MAWP/MAP, MDMT, PWHT, loads) in PV Elite, cross-check results with external FEA, and consolidate compliance evidence through Manufacturer's Data Reports.

I also bring strong collaboration and delivery discipline: I run remote design reviews across time zones, manage technical discussions with vendors and licensors, and mentor junior engineers to reduce revision cycles by ~25%. Earlier, I led drafting teams for filtration products and drove measurable improvements—cutting screen cutting lead time by ~40–50% and reducing assembly time by ~20% through DFM/DFA.
