About David

Mechanical Engineer with more than 20 years of experience in manufacturing, product development, industrialization, and industrial operations.

My professional career started on the shop floor, working directly with CNC machining, assembly lines, and manufacturing processes within the automotive industry. Over the years, I progressed into mechanical design, product development, manufacturing engineering, production management, and industrial leadership positions.

This journey has provided me with a practical understanding of the entire industrial lifecycle, from concept and design to manufacturing, industrialization, and production.

Throughout my career, I have worked in automotive, renewable energy, metal fabrication, and industrial manufacturing environments, leading projects related to mechanical design, process development, industrialization, production improvement, cost optimization, and operational growth.

My expertise includes:

• Mechanical Design (CATIA V5)

• Product Development

• Design for Manufacturing (DFM)

• Manufacturing Engineering

• Industrialization of Products and Processes

• Production and Operations Management

• Lean Manufacturing and Continuous Improvement

• Process Optimization and Cost Reduction

I enjoy working on projects where engineering, manufacturing, and business objectives need to be aligned to deliver practical and sustainable industrial solutions.

My approach is straightforward: design it properly, manufacture it efficiently, and build processes that support long-term growth.
