Experience

  • BOLD
    Battery Pack Design Engineer
    August 2022 - Today (3 years and 10 months)
    Barcelona, Spain
    As a Design Engineer, I am adept at leading the mechanical engineering design and
    development of battery packs, focusing on high-end applications like aerospace and
    motorsport through the utilization of 3D Experience - Catia v6.
    My responsibilities include designing and developing mechanical assemblies and structures,
    ensuring compliance with performance targets for mass, safety, certification, and structural
    requirements. Collaborating seamlessly with electrical, structural, and thermal simulation
    teams, I enhance designs to meet project goals within cost and timing constraints.
    Additionally, I contribute to the generation of test and experiment specifications, design
    necessary jigs and assemblies, and draft drawings for composite components, tooling, jigs,
    and fixtures.
    My expertise extends to applying design specifications, including electrical requirements for
    clearances and safety parameters, while maintaining a comprehensive understanding of
    CATIA functions and structuring Generator files. Through parametric modelling and stable
    tree structures, I support agile geometry development and showcase skills in surfaces and
    solids for designing components in composites and associated tooling. I apply my knowledge
    of process limitations and tolerance when defining geometries and implementing GD&T to
    ensure precision in the manufacturing process.
  • Torrot
    R&D Engineer
    November 2020 - August 2022 (1 year and 9 months)
    As a member of the development team at an electric motorcycle manufacturer, I assumed a
    pivotal role overseeing various aspects of motorcycle systems. This encompassed design,

    simulation, validation, testing, and industrialization. Collaborating closely with cross-
    functional teams including purchasing, quality, and production departments, I ensured a

    fluid coordination within the team.
    My primary focus involved designing new components for upcoming motorcycle models,
    ensuring alignment with cost, manufacturing methods, and timelines. This necessitated
    collaboration with suppliers to achieve optimal performance. The components I worked on
    ranged from tubular steel welded structures (e.g., chassis) and plastic parts (e.g., bodywork)
    to machined or casting parts (e.g., swing arms, brackets, gearwheels). Additionally, I
    contributed to system studies such as rear linkage suspension geometry design and the
    development of a powertrain system for an entirely new bike model.
  • e-Tech Racing - Formula Student Team
    Mechanical Engineer in Training
    February 2018 - February 2020 (2 years)
    Barcelona, Spain
    E-tech racing is a Formula Student team in which university students develop and
    manufacture a car to compete with other universities at an international level. There I was
    part of the vehicle dynamics department and carried out the design, simulation,
    manufacturing and validation tasks of the unsprung mass system of the car (upright, hub,
    wheels, braking system and part of the transmission).
    I had the opportunity to work with various companies in the industrial sector, thus seeing
    how engineering teams work. Another important aspect is that I was able to develop some
    basic tools of a mechanical / industrial engineer such as computer aided design or simulation
    with the finite element method, as well as other transversal skills such as teamwork and
    project management.
