Build first dedicated team in Renesas Power Group for hardware extractions and analysis. Defined mission, strategy and plans to scale the small team to support tens of Power Groups products across 5 BUs.The mission: first-time-right. With a risk-assessment methodology in mind, I created the workflow that integrates hardware modeling into the early phases of the project.I am addressing topics such as PDN, parasitics, SI simulations, as well as comprehensive PCB and SiP performance analysis integrating package and silicon.Proficient in using Keysight ADS but I’m using Sigrity, Hyperlynx and Ansys as well.Role is team lead, hands-on as well as research heavy. During the years spent building and leading the team, learning my way through Power Integrity and related activities was paramount.Fast learning curve with any tool. I create python scripts for automation of repetitive tasks, leveraging my team's knowledge where it is needed.I communicate with high-level Directors and VP, creating sharp and targeted presentations of strategy, plans and team performance.Leadership | Organized | Strategic | Hand-on

Outsourcing hardware board designs for PMIC validation and qualification. Recognized for outstanding leadership in managing outsourced PCB projects, I defined a Outsource Workflow. Skilled in crisis management, supplier relations, and implementing efficient workflows.Identifying and performing business reviews with PCB and PCBA suppliers.Tasked to lead the migration to Altium Designer of a BU, comprising over 90 people.Proficient in using tools such as JIRA, Confluence, Mentor Expedition and Altium.

Architectural Definition: Defined hardware architectures for electronicsSchematic and PCB Design | Manufacturing of Hardware | Hardware bring-up: Schematic and PCB designs across various Technical Readiness Levels, with a primary focus on boards with FPGAs and advanced camera sensors. Compliance with applicable ECSS standards in the design of schematics and PCBs, maintaining the highest quality and reliability standards. Scripts for hardware bring-up.Power and Signal Integrity | Thermal analysis: Conducted Power and Signal Integrity simulations as well as Thermal simulations (Flotherm)Project Management: Project Management tasks, from writing proposals for ESA ITTs to crafting Technical Notes for projects, employing the Kanban methodology for work package development and resource management.

CAD Design for PCBs used by automatic test equipment

Played a pivotal role in leading a team and managing various aspects of hardware development, including budgeting, recruitment, and strategic project management. Engaging in hands-on engineering tasks.Building hardware for cloud computing servers, based on Intel CPUs as well as defining concept, rack box, performing design and simulations (SI, PI, Thermal, EMC).

I led a high-performing team of engineers, strategically expanding its size and capabilities. As a pioneer in Signal Integrity (SI) simulation, I spearheaded the department-wide adoption of these simulations, significantly improving design quality. My expertise extends to designing complex schematics and layouts for backplanes and carrier boards, further bolstered by my proficiency in performing hardware measurements and ensuring their correlation with simulations.

PCB Design Engineer, mainly backplanes, experience with a couple of backplane standards (cPCI, VME), using P-CAD as a design software.
