Leiria, Portugal

• I was in charge of validating all injection molds coming from transfer projects to the factory, improving and refining the manufacturing process from pilot stage, until it enterd the production phase.
• I partook in the optimization and continuous improvement plan of our screen-printing line and IML line, in an ISO 7 environment.
• Since the start of 2024 I have been promoted to a leading role, where I am responsible for managing a production cell, comprised of 12 injection molding machines, with a team of 4 injection molding technicians and 18.

Batalha, Leiria, Portugal

• I integrated the project development team, responsible for the testing and validation of new plastic injection molds and parts.
• I planned with outside manufacturers the changes and continuous improvements that needed to be made for each mold during its development.
• I studied the development of several conformal colling systems via metallic additive manufacturing, within the scope of my master's dissertation.

Marinha Grande, Leiria, Portugal

• I studied the effect of processing conditions on injection molding, using the Design of Experiments (DOE) Process.
• I integrated the development of several activities from the TOOLING 4G Innovation Project, specifically the activities: PPS2 –- Smart Tools/Systems and PPS4 - Multiprocess Tools.

Guimarães, Braga, Portugal

• I worked as a research technician in the areas of computational mechanics and numerical simulation, continuing the projects developed in the previous internship.

Guimarães, Braga, Portugal

• I worked as a research technician in the areas of computational mechanics and numerical simulation, where I developed algorithms in Python, to be used in the fluid flow simulation software OpenFOAM.
