About

I am an electrical engineer with a strong analytical approach, a great attention to details and a proven ability to work efficiently also under pressure. I am a curious and flexible person, open to cover any type of tasks and always ready to learn. I enjoy working with people and like working independently; as a member of a multicultural company I learned to deal with diverse approaches and get the most out of it. I like providing ideas and sharing my knowledge with others. Organization and reliability enable me to feel comfortable also in difficult circumstances, when excellent problem solving skills are essential. Let's connect!

Experience

  • Cable system design engineer at AVENTA Group
    May 2021 - Present · 5 yrs 2 mos

    As a System Design Engineer I contribute to the development of the worldwide electrical system with the design of new HVDC interconnections, enabling countries to connect and wind farms export their power. My main responsibilities are: - Design HVDC systems, including power cable, optical system and accessories; - Perform technical analyses (thermal, electrical, mechanical) for the identification of the optimal solution for the system; - Provide technical support to clients in tender and execution phases; - Carry out FEED studies; - Interact with internal and external stakeholders for enhancing collaboration and tackling open items

    As a Senior planning engineer my main responsibilities are: - Responsible for large scale projects and technical studies - Specify pre-energization data and Power Quality requirements for new connections - Interact with internal and external stakeholders at different levels - Test customers’ compliance with Grid Code requirements - Deliver connection design services for new customers as part of the offer process - Mentor and coordinate team members

  • Electrical Engineer at Ricerca sul Sistema Energetico - RSE SpA
    Sep 2013 - Sep 2018 · 5 yrs 1 mo

    Control Hardware In the Loop (CHIL) real time simulations for the evaluation of a primary control scheme for AC/DC converters in meshed/mixed distribution networks. Development of a centralized control to allow the interaction between the primary control scheme and a secondary control scheme, aimed to optimize the network operation. Analyses on smart grids: development of a tool for the optimization of distribution network operation. Meshed/mixed AC/DC distribution networks operation with a high penetration of renewable resources and new technologies. Evaluation of the impact of meshed/mixed AC/DC distribution networks on protection systems, fault analyses. HVDC systems: support to the inertia of the power system from HVDC connections, adopted technologies, power system protections, electromagnetic transient analyses, replicability of HVDC solutions on distribution networks. Master thesis supervisor. European projects: focus on distribution networks, methodologies and tools for the future DSO roles for an efficient integration of distributed generation, use cases writing, definition of the requirements for future control rooms, participation to international meetings. Involvement in international cooperation programs and institutional activities.
