Hello, My name is
Moises Hernandez
AEROSPACE & MECHANICAL ENGINEER | PROJECT MANAGER PROFESSIONAL
Hello. Welcome to my profile!
My name is Moises Hernandez; you’ll find me to be an innovative engineer with hands-on experience managing the scope, timeline, and cost of projects. I am capable of finding resourceful solutions to challenging problems.
I have successfully led multimillion-dollar development projects, coordinating teams of up to 20 members, and managed budgets as high as 20 million CHF. I maintain effective communication across all organizational levels and act as the primary interface with external customers, ensuring the successful delivery of the projects.
About Me
Born and raised in Spain, you’ll find me to be an open-minded engineer who loves to be surrounded by people from different backgrounds. While everyone has their peculiarities, there is always a lot to learn from the people around you with their unique perspectives.
This mindset was exemplified during my year studying abroad at Michigan Technological University, where I lived with nine other roommates from five different countries. This experience proved to be valuable for working on multi-cultural projects in my current role.
In 2021, I relocated to Switzerland where I have contributed to the integration of Liebherr engines installed on the Naviexpress boat on Lake Leman.
