Summary
Mechanical Design Specialist with over 6 years of experience in the defense industry and manufacturing sector. I have worked on the design and production of subsystems at companies serving as subcontractors for major defense companies such as ASELSAN, FNSS, and BİTES. In addition to my technical design responsibilities, I have also worked as a Production Supervisor, gaining extensive experience in transforming designs into manufacturable products and managing manufacturing processes. I have strong proficiency in design tools, particularly SolidWorks, Autodesk Inventor, and AutoCAD.
As a professional who values effective communication and a solution-oriented approach, I believe in the importance of teamwork, collaboration, and continuous improvement. I am experienced in working under high-pressure conditions with tight project schedules and have the ability to manage technical and administrative challenges effectively. I consistently focus on achieving results and developing practical solutions while ensuring that assigned tasks are completed accurately, efficiently, and on time.
