Bio

I worked with Rui when he was based in the UK as the manufacturing liaison advising on design for manufacture aspects and during product hand over to the assembly plant in Portugal. His detailed knowledge of manufacturing processes was of great value during the design of products and have no doubt in saying he greatly enhanced the hand over to the manufacturing plant. Rui is a very approachable person and a real team player.

Rui is a driven detail orientated leader who always went the extra mile to support my delivery and setup of test equipment in his factory. He was my principle contact and his efforts made my tasks much more successful. His knowledge and drive as an engineer and a leader spanned all manufacturing and test aspects of the Palmela facility.
