Profile

Automation engineer with expertise in test and validation applied to various

industry markets like: automotive, aerospace and defence, energy, mechatronics and R&D. Comprehensive knowledge about software and hardware development for simulations and embedded systems with different platforms and technologies.

Experience

Consultant: TMC — 2018/Present (Leuven, Belgium)

Currently, I’m working as a system architect in Flanders Make, a no profit research centre in mechatronic, that is focused on bringing innovation and new technologies to industry. Major focus is given to motion systems and autonomous vehicles. I am involved in identifying the needs of industrial partners not only to help them to overcome challenging problems but also to link them with the state-of-the-art technologies developed by research. The final goal is to establish innovative solutions that will be applied to the market.

Accomplishments

E - Powertrain Lab: Hardware in the loop for testing electro motors and battery systems for vehicle electrification.

Smart Maintenance Living Lab: automatic test lab for vibration analysis on bearings with the focus on early failure detection based on machine learning algorithms

Advanced Consultant: Altran - 2015/2018 (Turin, Italy) As part of the core team of the “Advanced Testing & Simulation Expertise Center” of Altran in Italy I was designing solutions for validation and simulation for different customers. My portfolio is counting more than 10 systems based on different platforms (National

Instruments, dSpace, OpalRT, Beckhoff and more)

tailored to the specific needs of the project for customers like: CNH, FCA, Ford, Ferrari, Toyota, ABB, Leonardo Sistemi di Difesa, Baxter, Panasonic and many more. I worked on multiple aspects from the solution definition, and the economical proposal to project execution and delivery.
