La Estrella, Colombia
Hello, I am a mechanical engineer with over 6 years of experience working in the mechanical industry. My primary focus has been the development and programming of CNC (Computer Numerical Control) systems and CAD (Computer Aided Design) design for various industrial machining applications. During my career, I have worked with a wide variety of CNC programming software, including Mastercam, Fusion 360 and Esprit. I also have strong mechanical design and manufacturing skills, allowing me to provide complete solutions for my clients' projects. I am adept at creating custom CNC programs for milling machines, lathes and other industrial machining equipment. In addition, I have experience in 4 and 5-axis programming, which allows me to tackle complex and challenging projects. I also have advanced CAD design skills, including the use of software such as SolidWorks and AutoCAD. I am a reliable, detail-focused professional and always seek to provide high quality and accurate solutions for my clients' projects. If you are looking for an experienced CNC programmer and CAD designer with a commitment to quality, I would be happy to work with you on your next project.

I help companies take existing CAD designs and make them manufacturing-ready. Clients bring me in when a product already exists but needs to be cleaned up, validated, optimized for DFM, or clearly documented for suppliers and production teams. I typically work on products that are past the concept stage and require senior-level CAD refinement, design validation, and technical clarity before manufacturing or scale-up. You’ll want to work with me if: • You have an existing CAD model that needs cleanup, validation, or restructuring • A design looks fine visually but isn’t ready for manufacturing • Suppliers are asking questions or pushing back on drawings • Assembly logic isn’t clear or documented • You need senior-level DFM feedback before tooling or production • Legacy parts or STL files need to be rebuilt properly My work typically includes: • CAD cleanup, validation, and optimization for manufacturing • DFM-driven design refinement • Reverse engineering from STL, scans, or legacy CAD • Assembly logic definition and exploded views • Manufacturing and installation documentation • Technical animations for assembly, training, and product explanation I usually work in a technical lead or senior contributor role, collaborating with internal engineers, manufacturers, and suppliers. I focus on well-defined, execution-driven projects where accuracy, clarity, and manufacturability matter. My goal is to reduce production risk, supplier confusion, and costly rework before manufacturing begins. I bring over 19 years of experience working with industrial and mechanical products in engineering-driven environments, including projects requiring high accuracy, traceability, and technical rigor. My background in aeronautical engineering brings a strong focus on structure, validation, and design discipline to every project. Tools: • CAD: CATIA V5, SolidWorks • Visualization: KeyShot • Documentation and Graphics: SolidWorks Composer, Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop

Bucaramanga, Colombia
I am pursuing a Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering. I have gained practical experience in both structural and fluid analysis through projects using SolidWorks and ANSYS, and I have developed extensive code in MATLAB, Python and C++. I have experience in academic writing, technical documentation, and complex document typesetting. In LaTex, I have experience with TexStudio and Overleaf, and the TexLive package. My professional experiences include working as a technical director in an automotive diagnostic center, as a maintenance and assembly engineer in a transport company, and as a technical research specialist, which has allowed me to translate complex technical developments into clear, concise insights. I am skilled at synthesizing detailed information into structured reports. My academic background includes extensive coursework in statics, material resistance, machine mechanics, machine design, mechanisms, fluid power, mechatronics, and different numeric methods such us FEM, VEM, BEM. During my master's program, I have taken courses in Engineering Modeling & Simulation, Design of Experiments, and the Boundary Element Method, which is highly relevant for structural analysis and studying crack growth. In my undergraduate studies, my thesis on supersonic nozzle design gave me a solid foundation in fluid mechanics and dynamics. My current master's work on crack growth in thin-walled pressure vessels further deepens my understanding of structural analysis. Thank you for your time and consideration. Best regards, Omar Fuentes
