I am a seasoned Mechanical Engineer specialized in Stress and Design, with over 20 years of experience across the aeronautical, automotive, and offshore sectors. My career has been driven by a passion for structural integrity, precision engineering, and technical innovation. I have developed deep expertise in FEA modelling (Nastran/Patran, Hypermesh, FEMAP), hand calculations, and design optimization for both metallic and composite structures. Throughout my professional journey, I have successfully led and supported complex R&D and aircraft modification projects—from concept design and structural analysis to validation and certification. My background includes managing engineering teams, preparing technical and commercial proposals, and serving as a trusted technical expert for major aerospace programs such as Airbus A350, A400M, A380, H135, and Ariane 6. Fluent in English and Spanish, with working knowledge of German, I bring a multicultural and multidisciplinary approach to every project—ensuring quality, efficiency, and innovation in every structural solution I deliver Fluent in English and Spanish. Basics in German. Native in French.
