About Ismail

IWE certified welding engineer, I work on high technical requirement projects in the nuclear, Oil&Gas, and pressure equipment sectors. With several years of experience on critical installations such as the Flamanville EPR, the EPR2 steam generators and vessels, or components for the HPC or Sizewell project in the UK, I ensure welding coordination, WPS/PQR drafting, quality monitoring, and documentary compliance.

My expertise covers both material metallurgy (Stainless Steel, Inconel, Duplex, Super-Duplex) and reference standards such as RCC-M, EN ISO 15614, ISO 9606, or CODETI. I am proficient in handling quality deviations (NCR/NC), NDT analysis, supplier inspection, technical audits, and nuclear safety requirements. I have also contributed to drafting internal technical specifications (EDF, Framatome), as well as justifying the robustness of welding processes to the ASN.

Open to new challenges, I am currently seeking opportunities in welding engineering or inspection in France or internationally, particularly as a freelancer. I appreciate demanding environments, documentary rigor, on-site technical support, and exchanges with stakeholders (clients, notified bodies, inspection, manufacturing).
