I hold a Bachelor's in Mechanical Engineering and work as an R&D Verification Engineer at Ansys. My primary focus is Ansys Rocky (DEM/SPH), where I mainly deal with new features and performance testing, thermal and structural coupling cases, cloud computing, and scripting (Python). In this role, I contribute to the development and application of Ansys Rocky, ensuring quality and functionality.In addition, I develop custom-made maxillofacial prostheses and surgical planning through mechanical design, computer simulation, and machining (CAD/CAE/CAM). Furthermore, I collaborate with product development, mainly with mechanical design, optimization, thermo-structural, and mold injection simulations (CAD/CAE), delivering well-rounded solutions for regional industrial applications.With +5 years of experience in the engineering field, I have engaged in various sectors, including manufacturing, applied research, and product development, emphasizing mechanical design and computer simulation (CAD/CAE). My work has spanned multiple industries, with applications in automotive, agricultural, railway, solar energy, machines and equipment, thermoplastics, medical devices, and software.
