After I graduated from university, I joined the Analysis department of Multimatic Technical Centre Europe as a Structures Engineer. My main day-to-day responsibility at this job was to perform predictive analysis of automotive components using Finite Element Analysis (FEA) tools, validated with hand calculations and testing, to provide development direction for designers and customers.
List of projects where I took an active role in analysis:
Hood hinges and side door hinges for global OEM customers
Material cost reduction study for Ferrari Purosangue active damper housings
End eyes for position sensitive dampers of high performance off-road General Motors pick-up truck platform

Exhibited at the 12th UK Altair Technology Conference 2022 at the British Motor Museum in Gaydon to showcase Multimatic’s engineering process using Altair software.
Other activities I was involved in included coordinating and analysing tests, researching materials and developing models, presenting results to internal stakeholders and external customers, and the continuous improvement of our analysis processes.
