About Frank

I help companies design and deliver precision mechanical systems - from concept to production-ready CAD or project.

I’m a Senior Mechanical Design Engineer from Austria with 11+ years of experience across Austria, Spain, and the US, trusted by startups and multinational companies to lead R&D, factory relocation, and tooling automation projects.

Expertise:
  • End-to-end mechanical design using SolidWorks, Inventor & AutoCAD
  • 3D modeling, product design, and technical drawing for manufacturing
  • Design of automated tooling systems and complex demolding setups
  • Factory layout planning with 3D scans (ReCap)
  • Coordination of mechanical and electrical integration in industrial projects
Languages:
  • Native German, fluent English, B1 Spanish - ideal for EU/international teams
Based in Barcelona - available for remote work across the EU or on-site in Barcelona

I deliver fast, accurate, production-ready designs with minimal oversight under tight deadlines.
Let's talk if you're looking for a senior engineer who solves problems, not just draws parts.
