Lead or participate in innovative and fast-paced technology
projects to develop autonomous machines and capable technological systems
for challenging scenarios or environments.
Profile
Six years of experience in innovative research and challenging
engineering developments. Proven ability to organize, produce or participate
in rapid technology programs, from conception to testing and operation.
Expertise in field deployment and operations of autonomous machines and
systems. Ability in managing teams and resources towards prompt and successful
objective completion.
Research Activities and Work Experience
Robotics Antarctic Meteorite Search Program.
Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh, 1998-1999 --Led second expedition
with the field deployment of first robot to search for meteorites in Antarctica.
Negotiated and organized air transportation, field support, and human resources
for antarctic robotic research operations for first and second expeditions.
Conducted the research plan and facilitated cooperation between investigation
teams in adverse weather conditions. Developed and executed specific research
agenda for radar sensing in both expeditions.
Atacama Desert Trek Initiative. Carnegie Mellon
University, Pittsburgh, 1996-1997 --Participated in development and
deployment of Nomad, the rover that traversed 200 Km in the Atacama Desert.
Implemented pointing of communication antenna and steering control. Organized
logistics and public relations and supported field operations.
Desarrollos de Automatización S.A.,
Santiago de Chile, 1993 to 1996 -- Achieved fast conception, design,
implementation and successful testing of new fire control system for missile
boats in eighteen months with a small team. Designed operational logic
and human interface, participated in the implementation of target detection
and tracking by radar and visual sensing, assisted in moving platform precise
control. Participated in development for two missile boats and designed
for frigates.
