Protev GroupProduct and Tooling Engineering Manager
Aug. 2008 - Dec. 2022Chihuahua, Chihuahua, MexicoUsing my 30+ years experience, I helped customers either develop products from scratch, through feasibility, flow simulation analysis, mould design and construction up until sign off, or even as a troubleshooter to assist them with any plastic injection related defects. In my first role, I have worked on several automotive Tier 1 projects such as the F25/F26, SE380/382, CX727, U553, X540, BX726, BR167 & G07, L02B & B02A developing head & tail lighting, H/VAC and infotainment components, using CAD and CAE software to develop them. My second role was to be on site at different facilities from customers to help in either their daily production issues, a specific tool that is not producing as it should be, secondary value added processes, design evaluations and recommendation, and so forth. A normal day does not apply in this position, seeing that you can be developing a project one day, and the following you can be called in to assist with an escalation because a part is unable to be produced.
