- Actively contributed in adapting the VKI S/1-C transonic linear cascade to perform quasi-3D endwall measurements. - Designed and calibrated time-averaged and fast-response instrumentation to test at low-density and transonic Mach numbers under the impact of deterministic unsteadiness. - Developed modular advanced data reduction algorithms to automatize.

- Defined experimental campaign to study the aerodynamics of a vertical tailplane using an indraft transonic wind tunnel. - Scaled and designed testing article and handled manufacturing with sub-contractor. - Instrumented the the testing article with pneumatic lines and pressure-sensitive paint. - Programmed post-processing routines for data reduction of.

- Controlled budget associated with drivetrain. - Collaborated with sub-teams to design differential mountings to work as stress components. - Verified mechanical integrity of transmission components by means of FEA. - Handled communication with sub-contractors to produce mechanical parts.

- I was assigned the task of reducing the time spent in engine disassembly. - Conceived a workshop kit with the gathered equipment to facilitate disassembly of CFM56 variants. - Participated in full-scale bench tests of re-assembled units.

Performed research work on Siemens costumers and composed a business plan regarding their financial reports as well as their market prospects in order to Siemens help the costumers improving their production capacity, factories efficiency and reliability. The business plan was later discussed in a meeting where Siemens decided the risk in investing based.
