Carlos S.

I’m an aerospace engineer and consultant with over 10 years of experience in aircraft design, research, and development. I specialize in parametric CAD surface modeling (CATIA V5), CFD simulations (ANSYS Fluent), and design-for-manufacture solutions for manned and unmanned aircraft systems. Through my engineering firm, ARIDO Design, I support clients in the U.S. and Latin America with remote, project-based CAD/CFD services. My work includes: * Conceptual design of VTOL and UAV platforms (up to 150 kg MTOW) * Aerodynamic configuration and CFD-ready geometry for hybrid-electric aircraft * Structural design of carbon fiber components for helicopters (e.g. Bell 407 systems) * Technical documentation and deliverables for engineering teams under NDA I focus on clarity, collaboration, and technical precision — helping clients turn ideas and early sketches into manufacturable, aerodynamic, and performance-driven aircraft designs. If you're developing an aircraft, drone, or aerospace component and need high-quality CAD/CFD support, let’s connect.
