About Julien

R&D Engineer with 13 years of experience in complex technical product development, I support industrial companies on their mechatronic projects — from specification to series launch.
What I concretely solve:
— Your product overheats, vibrates too much, or you have design issues in plastics engineering (molded parts, tolerances, tooling) → I analyze, propose concrete solutions, and validate.
— You are developing an electrical or mechatronic product without an experienced R&D project manager → I provide part-time technical leadership.
— Your design office wastes time on repetitive manual tasks (FMEA, dimension chain, project reporting) → I create custom Excel tools deployable immediately.
— You want to challenge your design choices before going too far → I perform an independent technical review.
Some concrete results from my projects:
→ Vibrations reduced from 20 m/s² to 2.5 m/s² (−87%) through analysis and laboratory testing
→ Electronic board temperature reduced from 100°C to 60°C (−40%) through thermal architecture and airflow simulation
→ Automated FMEA: from 2000 lines to less than 300, processed in 30s instead of 2-5 min each
→ Product ergonomics 6x more efficient thanks to a designed and patented mechanical innovation
→ Coordination of 8+ suppliers (China, Italy, France, Austria) + 8 support departments (prototype, electronics, methods, ...)
I work on:
Mechanical & Mechatronic Design · Thermal & Aerodynamics · Vibration Reduction · Functional Specifications · FMEA & Risk Analysis · International Supplier Coordination · Advanced Excel Design Office Tools
Available for: one-off or recurring assignments, 100% remote work, response within 24 hours.
