"Transforming the Present & Creating the Future”

My unique blend of over 21-year experience developing and manufacturing high technology products in the space, aviation, electronics and energy industries provides me with a solid background in physics, programming, electronics and hardware and manufacturing technologies. It allows me to be aware of hidden solutions, innovative features and dangerous failure modes. Having being in charge of areas such as design, manufacturing engineering and sustaining engineering, I create synergies between departments as well as with vendors, partners and customers. I lead by example and love to surround myself with talented, dynamic, passionate, dedicated people who are as motivated as I am to take on the next challenge. Core Competencies

Design, Engineering and complex Aerospace Manufacturing Operations. Program and Project Management. Team Building & Leadership, P&L, Operational Management. In other words: minimizing concept-to-market time and COGS. Internal communication, coordination and efficiency. Experience

SINCE 2012 ● VP of Engineering at BRS Aerospace

Leading Product Design, Manufacturing Engineering and sustaining Engineering teams. Established new product line for military and commercial UAS/UAV and manned aviation, to customers such as Airbus, Lockheed Martin, NASA, General Atomics, Aurora Flight Sciences, Cessna and Amazon among others.

I reduced COGS by 38% after implementing Lean techniques inspired in ACE. I also reduced the concept-to- market lead time in half after introducing DFX concepts during new product development. 2010–2012 ● PMO Manager / General Manager at AKO Engineering

Recovered 6 weeks delay in deliveries after the first 60 days at AKO as PMO Manager, designing and implementing electric control and thermal systems in nuclear and solar power plants. It paved the road to a promotion to General Manager of a business unit acquired from EATON Corp. Piloted year-over-year COGS reduction by 6%.

2007–2010 ● Director of Engineering at ODECO Technologies

Managed the R&D and Engineering activities, from software, hardware, mechanical and optical engineering to custom projects. I aligned the product portfolio after M&A and increased performance and quality while reducing cost. Managed low cost ODM programs in China. Our high-resolution technology drives the NASDAQ building video wall. Designed new laser technology for illuminators and architectural video. 2005–2007 ● Sr. Project Manager at TRYO Aerospace

I led the design, production and qualification of two on-board microwave embedded subsystems for the European Galileo GNSS satellites from inception to delivery.

The success during the Validation phase resulted in the award of the Full Operational contract. 2003–2005 ● Director of Engineering at CIMSA

As a Quality Engineer, I prepared CIMSA to be fully AS/EN9100 and NATO AQAP2110 compliant.

That success leveraged my promotion to create and lead the new Engineering Project Management Office.

The new product portfolio opened new markets in the military aerospace industry increasing sales by 14%. 2000–2003 ● Integration Engineer at Hewlett-Packard

We designed and delivered the first American smartphone, the venerable iPAQ Pocket PC phone. It was the first time a PDA had wireless communications and integrating the antenna and RF module was a success. 1998–2000 ● Systems Engineer at Naylo Hardware

Led the business service workforce. Coordinated a team of three engineers. 1996–1998 ● Hardware Engineer at ComputerSoft

I designed, from system, level to PCB, a mixed signal video device qualified for medical devices. Skills
