Het was kort maar fijn samenwerken met Rodolphe. Ik heb kunnen vaststellen dat hij gedreven is om een passende oplossing voor zijn klant te leveren. Rodolphe neemt verantwoording en is analytisch, realistisch en kritisch. Met zijn positieve houding kan hij anderen met weinig moeite meenemen richting de doelstellingen van het project.

Mark Kivit

First of all and most importantly, Rodolphe has a great personality. He is very open, interested in other people, open for other opinions, very positive and therefore pleasant to work with. Next to this he is also good in what he does as an engineer. He is very analytical, thorough, explores multiple options and can substantiate the choices he makes during the design. He has a wide range of experience in engineering systems with sheet metal, machined and plastic parts. Also on the electrical side he has some experience, what is beneficial for the overall design of a system. As I said before, Rodolphe is very thorough and that can be seen in his SolidWorks models. He builds up his models in a very structured and clear way in order for other people to easily use his models afterwards. I would be happy to work with Rodolphe any time.
