How I support your team

  • Long term in your team: I work within your processes, tools and PDM system, just like a team member.
  • For defined tasks: concepts, layouts or design packages that I handle independently.

What I bring

  • Development from concept through layout to functional prototype
  • Requirements management and contribution to FMEA
  • Engineering calculation, design and manufacturing documentation
  • Coordination with suppliers and production, production support
  • Validation planning
  • Experience in agile development teams (Scrum)

From practice

  • Hydrogen rail for direct injection: development up to functional prototype within the development team of an automotive supplier, using Siemens NX and Teamcenter.
  • Redesign of a thread rolling head: new electronically controlled triggering, from concept to prototype.
  • Manufacturing information in the 3D model (PMI): switching from 2D drawings to manufacturing data directly in the 3D model.
