Work
Selected experience in complex and mission-critical systems.
A few examples of where I’ve helped teams reduce technical risk, automate complex systems and make decisions that scale over time.
From safety-critical development to system-level verification - Deimos Space S.L.U. (now Indra S.A.)
I started my career as a developer working on safety-critical ground segment components (DAL-B level) at Deimos Space, contributing to the Galileo satellite navigation system. I later moved into Integration, Verification and Qualification (IVQ) roles across the Galileo ground segment.
- Development of safety-critical ground systems (DAL-B)
- IVQ activities: integration, testing and payload verification
- Participation in system-level test campaigns (including satellite compatibility tests)
- Development of a real-time Galileo signal decoder for test and verification purposes
Environment: ESA / Galileo ground segment, regulated and safety-critical context.
How this helps clients today: I bring a system-level mindset shaped in safety-critical environments, helping teams make architecture and integration decisions where correctness and reliability matter.
Automation and tooling leadership as Deputy IVQ Manager — Thales Alenia Space GmbH
As Deputy IVQ Manager, I was responsible for verification tooling and automation for one of the Galileo ground segment elements, as well as supporting system-level test activities.
- Ownership of IVQ tooling and verification automation
- Automation of complex software installation and system setup
- Reduced a full system setup from ~3 man-months to a fully automated, repeatable process completed in ~6 hours
- Technical coordination and support of verification teams
Outcome: faster, repeatable system setups with lower operational risk and higher test reliability.
How this helps clients today: I help teams replace fragile, manual processes with repeatable automation that dramatically reduces setup time, operational risk and dependency on individuals.
Engineering leadership for complex automation and integrations — VMware by Broadcom
As an Engineering Lead in cloud automation projects at VMware by Broadcom, I worked on the design and delivery of complex automation solutions integrating VMware platforms with third-party products.
- Design and implementation of complex integrations between VMware vRealize Automation (vRA) and external systems
- Development of fully automated, from-scratch platform installations orchestrated from vRA
- End-to-end automation workflows focused on repeatability and operational safety
- Technical leadership and mentoring for distributed engineering teams
Context: enterprise environments with high integration complexity and strong requirements around reliability and change control.
How this helps clients today: I help teams automate and integrate complex platforms in a controlled, repeatable way, reducing operational risk and dependency on manual processes.
