I'm offering
I'm a Principal Stress Engineer with over 15 years' experience using advanced simulation tools and techniques. I've been awarded the CEng (Chartered Engineer) accreditation within the IMechE in London on May 2017. I have a clear, logical mind with a practical approach to problem solving and a drive to see things through to completion. I enjoy working on my own initiative as much as being part of a team. In short, I am reliable, trustworthy, hardworking, and eager to learn.
