I’m a production engineer with a passion for making manufacturing smarter, faster, and more reliable. At Birinci Automotive, I’ve delivered measurable results, including a 25% increase in production efficiency and significant scrap rate reductions through automation, Six Sigma tools, and close teamwork. My experience spans process optimisation, CAD design, and quality assurance, with hands-on use of PFMEA, DOE, SPC, and lean manufacturing principles. I’ve also gained valuable insight from technical and management internships, working on everything from designing injection moulds to supporting strategic decision-making at the leadership level. I’m motivated by challenges that push me to break complex problems into simple, effective solutions. If you’re working on something that could benefit from fresh ideas in process engineering or automation, I’d be happy to connect.
