My name is Filipa Martins. I studied Industrial Engineering and Management at the University of Aveiro. Later, in 2021, I completed my specialization in Lean Management.

Throughout my professional career, I have worked in various types of industries: metalworking, injection, automotive and currently in the furniture industry. In these industries, I have performed functions in the areas of Lean Manufacturing, Lean Six Sigma and Quality. In my career so far, I have always managed to overcome all challenges. I consider myself a proactive, resilient and hard-working person. I am passionate about new challenges.

My first experience was at the company A. Silva Matos. Here I developed a production sequence planning project with the aim of reducing process execution time. To do this, it was necessary to eliminate waste and take into account the capacity of the factory resources.

It was at that moment that I realized how much I liked the Lean area.

Afterwards, I did a university internship at the company OLI, entirely focused on the Lean area. The project aimed to reduce preparation times. Lean methodologies such as SMED, Standard Work and 5S were applied. In this project, it was possible to obtain a process with less variation, greater productivity by balancing the assembly cells and reducing preparation time.

I did professional internships at Faurecia. I was responsible for leading reverse PFMEA meetings and implementing improvements to existing work standards. I applied Lean methodologies such as waste elimination and the kanban system. At this company, I later held the position of Quality Engineer. I performed process audits, trained operators in quality standards, solved problems using tools such as 8D, 5 Whys and performed statistical process control at a dimensional level.

At IKEA Industry, I was a Statistical Process Control Technician and was responsible for training, facilitating and qualifying stakeholders in the various production processes. The training consisted of SPC concepts and process capabilities. I was responsible for initiating the entire SPC dynamic with the work team, that is, identifying special causes of variation and eliminating or mitigating them. It was necessary to apply several analysis and optimization tools, such as experimental designs, regression analysis and hypothesis testing.

I currently work as a Continuous Improvement, Process and Quality Engineer at Massilly Portugal. I am responsible for defining strategies to improve processes.
