About Me

Robotics and AI Engineer with deep expertise in robotic systems design, ROS/ROS2, and autonomous systems.

I specialize in research and implementation of state-of-the-art robotics technologies including path planning, localization, control systems, and computer vision. My experience spans from academic research to industrial applications, working with leading robotics platforms and managing cross-functional teams to deliver innovative solutions.

Currently working at Eurecat Technology Centre in Barcelona, I lead robotics projects for both private clients and public organizations, including national and European programs. My work involves extensive hands-on experience with collaborative robots (KUKA, Universal Robots), UAVs, computer vision systems, and various mechatronic platforms.

Previously, I developed engine control systems for General Motors vehicles with deployment on 100,000+ vehicles, achieving significant cost savings of €8M+ through advanced machine learning algorithms for fault estimation. I also contributed to an AI startup that raised €3M+ in investments.
