Resumé

Profile

More than 7 years of experience in control systems, model based design, robotics, simulation testing and advanced motion control to create the next generation of control systems solutions especially when it requires a high level of reliability and resilience under the presence of external perturbations, uncertainties and failures. My main contributions include software development and testing for real time embedded control algorithms for overhead-cranes, forestry cranes and front-end loaders. Bringing robust semi-autonomous functions to tractor front-end loaders has been my main focus over the past two years at Ålö AB.

Expertise: Automation, Control Systems, Model Based Design, Embedded Software, PLC, Simulation.

Skills: Matlab-Simulink-Simscape, C++, dSpace, Step 7 and Logix Family, Maple, Mathematica.

Experience

Ålö AB Umeå, Sweden 2015/06 – 2017/10

Design Engineer

Joined the control system team to collaborate with the automation of the next generation of front-end loaders. As part of the R&D department, contributed in the following key projects: Q Companion - Ålö' first work monitor kit; Research - Coordination of a research project in conjunction with the Department of Applied Physics and Electronics at Umeå University, including the co-direction of a Ph. D. Thesis; Control System Next Generation - Development of new algorithms in collaboration with the Product Management and Business development team.

Umeå University Umeå, Sweden 2013/07 – 2015/05

Junior Researcher

As an independent researcher and team leader, worked on mobile hydraulics, creating innovative and result oriented solutions for the new generation of estimation and control algorithms. Most of the results can be found on conferences and journal proceedings and it leverages scientific principles and advanced mathematics.

Key projects: Semi-Automation of Forestry Cranes and Semi-Automation of Front-End Loaders.

UNAM Mexico City, Mexico 2011 – 2013

Postdoctoral Fellow

The design of advanced motion control for under actuated mechanical systems with an emphasis on resilient and nonlinear techniques was the main goal of this position. Particularly, complex tasks related with the transportation of suspended payloads under the presence of external perturbations, uncertainties and parametric variations were successfully solved for an Inteco test bench with Matlab/Simulink and real-time processing.

National Polytechnic Institute Mexico City, Mexico 2009 – 2012

Assistant Professor

Member of the control division at the electronics and communications department. Mentor of three undergraduate courses: PLC's, servo-mechanisms and nonlinear systems; leader of two seminars: robotics and research methods where in collaboration with colleagues, conducted interdisciplinary thesis projects. The seminars are designed for students which are in the last year of engineering and are not limited to one specific career or faculty. Working by teams, the students were oriented and motivated to solve problems applying their technical and theoretical background.
