About
Senior structural designer with 17 years of hands-on experience in ship and offshore vessel hull design, including 13 years as company-wide Cadmatic Hull Administrator at Ship Design Group in Galați, Romania. Deep, end-to-end expertise across the full hull design lifecycle: 3D hull modelling, hull-shape fairing, shell plating and shell plate development, production-grade nesting and cutting tables, and 2D/3D construction drawing in AutoCAD — applied across a wide portfolio of commercial and offshore vessels. As the company's Cadmatic Hull Administrator, acted as the internal technical authority for the software: defining and enforcing modelling standards across projects, and serving as the first point of contact for engineers, designers, and project managers whenever Cadmatic-related questions arose.
Also worked directly with shipyards to align 3D models with production requirements, and supported the commercial team by modelling client tender proposals. Between 2023 and 2026, stepped outside the naval sector to pursue an entrepreneurial, AI-driven chapter: independently designing and building a SaaS platform, followed by a remote Sales & Marketing role running AI-powered marketing campaigns. This period built a practical, self-taught fluency in modern AI tools — now actively channelled back into structural design, alongside the naval expertise that remains the primary technical focus.
Fluent in English.
