Technical Design Engineer

Me

Get to know me.

Currently a Freelance Technical Design Engineer, specialising in the manufacture of retail & residential furniture and interior equipment. I’m a technically minded designer with a wealth of CAD knowledge, with vast experience using Solidworks, PDM, AutoCAD, Fusion360, Sketchup and the Adobe Creative suite.

I've worked with and for some of the biggest names in the industry with my client list including Boots, Specsavers, Hugo Boss, Tesco, Yamaha, Sony, Waitrose, Sainsburys, WH Smiths, Lidl & Costa. My work has been featured at numerous exhibitions including Retail Design Expo, Euroshop, numerous interior / kitchen exhibitions, as well as countless big-brand, concept & flagship stores. I have experience delivering technical design packages from tender to bespoke, roll-out to mass production.

My engineering background allows me to bring a different perspective to design, where I thrive bridging the gap between concept and technical design output. I foster close relationships with the factories I know and love, from sheet metalworkers to joinery production facilities. My freelance career was launched from the wealth of knowledge I managed to absorb from these brilliant British craftspeople.

Fancy a chat? I spend the majority of my time based in either Hertfordshire or London, you can track me down for a coffee there. Alternatively if you'd like to talk about freelance opportunities or have any further questions I am always happy to chat via hello@kyleswinburn.com.
