I am a passionate mechanical engineering master's student from Stellenbosch University, South Africa. After completing my thesis in May, I am eager to kick-start my career in Europe from the beginning of June! As an EU passport holder, I am legally permitted to work in any EU country. I can speak English natively, Afrikaans (similar to Dutch) at an intermediate level, and German at a beginner level. My main countries of interest are the Netherlands, Germany, Ireland and the Czech Republic.
I am willing to work in any hands-on, technical role though my particular interests are in finite element analysis (FEM), CAD, renewable energy (solar) Based on my excellent academic record and ability to think critically and accurately, I am suitable for a role to tackle tough problems.
