Hello, Let me introduce myself. I am a physics engineer, materials science, and I have more than 15 years of experience as a design engineer. I have extensive experience in detailed design and modeling of tools and equipment, tolerance, and dimensional analysis. Very proficient in CAD, specifically in SolidWorks (owner of a Premium and Simulation Pro), Fusion 360 experience as well. Selection of materials, production processes, and suppliers. Calculation of cost and production time. I have experience designing finished products and tools/molds for the mold injection process, systems for high vacuum/ high pressure, inert, and dangerous gases, reverse engineering, CFD, and FEA analysis. Customer-oriented - I try to be neutral and objective, I fully listen to the person's comments and reflect on my work at the same time, with this fresh new perspective coming from this person's viewpoint. I respect they took the time to give me feedback and value their opinion. My job as a designer is to identify and find valuable solutions that will better serve customers. Sincerely, Vitaly
