I had been performing structural analysis of high pressure Fuel Injection Equipment (FIE) for over nine years at Delphi Diesel Systems. This role required detailed knowledge of the fatigue analysis techniques that pertained to the metals that these products were manufactured from and the use of finite element techniques to calculate the stresses that they are exposed to.In the role of Structural analysis team leader I managed a team of eight structural analysis engineers, including two… Show more I had been performing structural analysis of high pressure Fuel Injection Equipment (FIE) for over nine years at Delphi Diesel Systems. This role required detailed knowledge of the fatigue analysis techniques that pertained to the metals that these products were manufactured from and the use of finite element techniques to calculate the stresses that they are exposed to.In the role of Structural analysis team leader I managed a team of eight structural analysis engineers, including two senior analysts, across three sites (London, Stonehouse & Bangalor). I was responsible for all structural analysis activities within the heavy duty business and I learnt to recognise the key skills and the core strengths of my team and to manage the workload appropriately.Key training over this period:• Abaqus CAE• Fatigue and Fracture Mechanics in FE analysis (NAFEMS)• New engineering manager (I.Mech.E)• Performance Management Training (HR Champions) Show less

In 2008 I was promoted to Lead Structural Analysis Engineer and led the structural analysis for one and then in 2009 two advanced engineering projects. In this role I was exposed to the processes of planning an engineering project and witnessed my designs take physical form. It was in this role that I gained my first experience of management, as I was assisted by fellow structural analysts who worked under my supervision.Key training over this period:• FEMAT (Magna)• “Presenting… Show more In 2008 I was promoted to Lead Structural Analysis Engineer and led the structural analysis for one and then in 2009 two advanced engineering projects.

I joined the Analysis team at Delphi Diesel Systems as a Graduate Engineer. I was responsible for design assessment and optimisation using advanced simulation tools and I specialised in structural fatigue analysis using Finite Element Analysis (FEA). In this role, I learnt the subtleties of building linear and nonlinear solid element FE models, including appropriate mesh refinement, contact formulation and constraint choice.Key training over this period:• Ansys… Show more I joined the Analysis team at Delphi Diesel Systems as a Graduate Engineer.

Basildon

Manufacturing quality inspector of remote control & cable systems equipment. My duties included ‘goods in’ inspection and approval, production line inspection and approval, fault investigation and correction.

Bedfordshire

Circulated project based work including: Crash Lab analysis, safety systems, HyGe sled work, impact barrier testing, designing and building test rigs. The project based work gave me a unique insight into materials and structural designs whilst also allowing me to expand my team working skills
