• Trains ATI team on drone mapping and data processing using various software, highlighting each software's advantage to various specific conditions.• Leads ATI’s training related to DJI Enterprise and other UAV models.• Leads on-site demo for potential clients, explaining use cases.• The point of contact regarding customer technical issues and ATI’s team questions relating to DJI Enterprises technology and other UAV services.• Develops training materials for ATI and build ATI’s Enterprise drone website (aero.ph)• Explore services to offer to ATI’s customers, in addition to training (e.g., surveys).I joined in Enabled (formerly Agile Technologies Inc.) to help their clients fully utilize the drone technology of DJI Enterprise by training their team in drone operations and developing comprehensive system specifically tailored based on their needs and existing systems. I developed a full suite of training program, from basic drone operation, autonomous flight planning, gathering of data, generation of Orthomosaics/3D model/vegetation index/ LiDAR point cloud using post processing softwares such as DJI Terra, Agisoft Metashape, Pix4D Mapper and Cloud Compare, onward to visualization and utilization of the drone data using various GIS softwares. I also generated a thermal drone based analysis system for a large multinational company to enable optimized and efficient solar panel inspection in a very challenging terrain which opens up the possibility of utilizing even the heavily varied terrain for photovoltaic solar station operations.We have served multiple government agencies and private entities from land development, construction, agriculture, search and rescue, military, public safety, civil groups and various environmental NGOs.

Ateneo Innovation Center 5G project• Collaborated in planning, conceptualization, research and development of usecases and applications for 5G systems and other projects.• Conducted literature review and searched for materials relevant to theprojects, analyzed data, documented, managed database, co-authored proposalsand proof-read manuscripts for publication.• Provided technical assistance, UAV maintenance services and coordinatedwith partners and university personnel in the conduct of R&D demonstrations.• Prepared reports and performed presentation duties, attendance in meetings,conference workshop, etc., and mentored undergrads.• Performed other tasks assigned by the team leader for the completion of theproject.

• Directed the UAV lab and field functions.• Mentored and trained junior staff and clients on UAV operations.• Operated in sensitive and critical missions.• Developed various airborne and seaborne unmanned vehicles or platforms.• Integrated various COTS sensors and custom built payloads.• Multirole as Chief Maintenance, Head of R&D and Head of UAV Services I joined in Skyeye Analytics during it's fledgling stage as a startup company with the role of Ground Control Station (GCS) Operator to gather aerial images using our custom built locally assembled fixed-wing UAV systems for mapping services. As the company grew I was responsible for the streamlining and scaling of the drone operations by optimizing drone components, developing redundant and resilient systems, and integrating multiple sensors such as dual RGB cameras for orthomosaics and 3D model, custom built multispectral sensors for vegetation analysis, thermal cameras for powerline inspections, long range communication modules and developing our own multirotor systems for hovering and heavylift applications.Our locally assembled units were primarily composed of 3DRobotics APM 2.6 and Pixhawk autopilot systems, custom made carbon fiber components for multirotor airframes and some commercially available RC components. We also served the government and large conglomerates that contributed vastly in their wide bird's eye view and rapid decision making.
