Palermo, Sicily, Italy
Doctor of Cybernetic Engineering with a strong passion for integrating mechanics, electronics, and software. My mission is to bring intelligent systems to life, bridging the gap between theoretical modeling and physical prototyping. I have developed solid expertise in: -Robotics and Simulation: Development within the ROS2 environment (C/C++), advanced simulations using MATLAB/Simulink, and testing in virtual environments (Gazebo, RViz). -Design and Prototyping: CAD design and in-depth knowledge of Additive Manufacturing (3D Printing) technologies; -Electronics and Embedded Systems: PCB design (KiCad, EasyEDA) and microcontroller programming (STM32, ESP32, Arduino); -Industrial Automation: Implementation of PLC logic for process optimization. Driven by technological innovation, I combine the analytical rigor of engineering design with the versatility of rapid prototyping. I am constantly seeking new challenges that allow me to push the boundaries of automation and robotics.
The three-week challenge proposed by Prysmian Group required designing an IoT system engineered to operate in isolated or remote areas. Key responsibilities & applied skills: -Analyzing technological constraints related to the lack of stable network infrastructures in remote environments. -Designing the system architecture (data management, sensor selection, and low-power transmission protocols). -Developing the business model and pitching the idea to a jury of experts and corporate managers. -Intensive teamwork under tight deadlines.
During my curricular internship, I served as a Mentor/Coach for a middle school student team participating in the international FIRST LEGO League competition. I guided the students in the design, construction, and programming of autonomous robots using Lego Spike Prime and Mindstorms platforms, while also supporting them in the development of the scientific research project required by the competition. This experience allowed me to strengthen my project management, teamwork, leadership, and scientific communication skills.
