Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

When technical aspects significantly impact business efficiency, challenges arise not only from design but also from organization, project management, and inter-team coordination.

As a transition manager specializing in mechanical and mechatronic engineering departments, I assist companies facing transformation, restructuring, scaling-up, or operational difficulties.

With over 20 years of experience in mechanical design, industrialization, and special machine development, I step in to structure teams, secure projects, improve design processes, and enhance technical performance.

My expertise covers the management of engineering departments, coordination of mechanical, automation, and industrialization efforts, priority management, support for technical teams, and project leadership from concept to production.

I maintain a strong operational capability in SolidWorks design and in the development of industrial products and equipment, allowing me to intervene at both strategic levels and on the most complex technical issues.

My goal is to restore organizations' sustainable capacity to design effectively, control their deadlines, and improve their industrial performance.
