⚡Fail fast, learn fast ⚡ (right?) but what about hardware?I help companies and startups to have a successful IoT product (hardware and software), by learning fast, iterating fast, and increase the chance of success.As a Maker 🛠️, Entrepreneur 💼 , and electronic engineer 💡 I had envisioned, designed, built, and (more often that I like to admit) failed in getting an electronic product to the market before getting successful projects. All those experiences learned by others and in my own skin made me passionate about how to fast prototype a product, understanding the context of it, of it, use, the user, the client, and the market target 🎯 to know how to get a WIN, and if it is going to be a fail, not wait 2 years but 2 weeks to figure it out.I started having a strong background on the technical side, like PCB layout, firmware development, programming in embedded Linux in C. After my first startup failure, I knew I had to step up and engage in a 360 view of the life of a product. I love learning new things, learned about sales, marketing, a lean approximation for hardware development, user experience, and turn fast prototyping into the flag of my work. Know when to spend time coding, when to spend time documenting, how to be agile, and practical in every stage of the product.But is not all about fast prototyping. In my company, we have gone through the process of mass production of thousands of different devices that are now in the market.Hobbies: Mountain bike, automating smartphone games, build robotsSpecialties:-Hardware Design and Development-PCB Design and Rapid Prototyping-Hardware Expert Consultancy-Embedded Hardware Development-Embedded Software Development-Embedded programming of microcontrollers-Embedded Linux programming-Small Batch Productions-Back-End and Front-End devel-Hand soldering-Mobile Application Development-Custom Software Development
