Manager Engineer

Presentation of

LUCIANO BRAGHERI

I've grown my professional experience starting as Electronic and

Mechatronic Application Engineer with some companies all top of the

market in the golden age of the eighties.

All very popular Companies in the EDA market, Computervision,

pioneer of the Computer assisted Electronic Design, INCASES

Engineering small but very experienced and Mentor Graphics one

of the top leaders nowadays.

I have served those companies supporting accounts of any size,

having success and proven customer satisfaction, good to excellent

communication between development, marketing, sales, support,

end user.

I’ve done my job in respect of the Company rules I was serving at

that time and with the target of giving all my best to accomplish the

duty assigned for the target customer.

Time is changing and I'm changing too, now seeking new challenges

to make available the experience accumulated in years, and I always

have a lot of respect for the beginning of my career as PCB

Designer/Layouter as you prefer to call it, job for which I will no

doubts apply my candidature.

Thank You

Luciano Bragheri
