Project Management Assistant in the metallurgical industryConduct process data analysis in Excel and Python to assess and diagnose mass and energy losses and suggest improvements to reduce energy consumption.

This is an activity focused purely on learning to develop programming skills in Matlab and Python, and in which I applied knowledge in numerical simulation from different fields.I can highlight: I coded in Matlab a neural network using backpropagation to control an automatic bottling machine, processing sensor and actuator data to ensure accurate filling and sealing while preventing operational errors through real-time data consistency checks.I coded in Matlab a Hopfield neural network to recognize and recover noisy patterns, analyzing its tolerance to noise, storage capacity, and stability under varying conditions.I coded in Matlab a Kohonen neural network to solve the Traveling Salesman Problem for 500 cities, optimizing the route through self-organization and refining weights over 1 million steps, while adjusting learning parameters to improve accuracy.I coded in Matlab and Python finite element models in MATLAB to analyze and determine temperature distributions in thermal problems, optimizing solutions for heat transfer and thermal conductivity scenarios.

I spearheaded the design of advanced cooling systems for a 25 MW open-pool reactor, markedly improving operational efficiency while fortifying compliance with stringent safety protocols. My approach to nuclear safety calculations was both meticulous and innovative, particularly in simulating loss of coolant and blackout scenarios, where I contributed to formulating robust risk mitigation strategies. Notably, I pioneered a computational model that significantly expedited the simulation of radiochemical reactions, transforming a week-long process into a day's work, thereby optimizing resource allocation and predictive accuracy.

As a Teaching Assistant at Universidad De Buenos Aires, I passionately provided instruction in finite element methods, arming students with critical problem-solving skills applicable in complex engineering scenarios. My dedication to hands-on learning experiences was instrumental in enhancing student comprehension of theoretical principles, applied through the practical use of FEA software. Collaborating with faculty, I contributed to curriculum development, ensuring its alignment with both academic and industry standards. My efforts were rewarded by a tangible uptick in student performance, a testament to the effectiveness of our pedagogical enhancements.

My role as a Nuclear Safety Analyst at Autoridad Regulatoria Nuclear was characterized by a relentless pursuit of excellence in securing startup and operational licensing for the Atucha II Nuclear Power Plant. I steered deterministic safety analyses for Small Modular Reactor designs, bolstering the integration of innovative nuclear technologies. I had the privilege of leading the mechanical team in advancing aging management systems, thereby contributing significantly to the extended operation of Atucha I. My initiative in integrating novel computational tools during my master's program set a new precedent, aligning safety analysis with contemporary core design advancements.

At DroPur, as a Process and Production Engineer, I led the launch of a state-of-the-art chroming plant for Volkswagen's Amarok pickup bumpers. My role was critical in establishing and refining production processes that upheld the highest quality standards. I orchestrated a strategic transition from batch to continuous production, which not only quadrupled daily output but also positioned the company as a leader in operational efficiency.
