Catarina S.

Hi! I’m Catarina, an Aerospace Engineering student at FEUP with hands-on experience on ambitious projects beyond the classroom. I contribute to the structural design, assembly, and testing of rockets as a member of Porto Space Team, and I am currently modeling components and assemblies in Fusion 360, focusing on mechanisms like air brakes and the overall vehicle assembly, while collaborating on technical documentation. This work has strengthened my skills in teamwork, iterative design, and delivering results under tight deadlines. What I can offer: - 3D CAD Modeling (Fusion 360, SolidWorks) - Structural Design & Prototyping - Static FEA Analysis - Programming (Python, C++) - PCB Design (KiCad, EasyEDA) - STEM Tutoring and Tecnhical Writing (reports, presentations, LaTeX) My passion for space and engineering started long before university. I have participated in projects like CanSat Portugal and Astronaut for a Day, was featured in the book Raparigas na Ciência (Girls in Science) by Ciência Viva, and received both the Merit and Value Awards for academic achievements. I’m detail-oriented, reliable, and passionate about the work I do. To continue growing, I am expanding my skills through courses in nTop, programming, and small satellite engineering. Whether you need accurate technical drawings, well-structured reports, or engineering modeling support, I aim to deliver high-quality results efficiently. Let’s work together!
