    I started working on the EEE section five years ago, in the Engineering and Radiation Team as Radiation Effects Engineer or Radiation Process Owner (RPO). Right now, I am the most experienced RPO inside of Airbus Spain, giving support, internally, to my colleagues in CRISA and, externally, to other Airbus companies. Even more so, I have been in charge of providing training internally to the other radiation engineers.Regarding the projects in which I have worked, I have been in charge of at least three MetOp SG units, I have also managed the whole radiation topics for the Exomars On Board Computer (OBC) (mission delayed to 2022) and I took over JUICE Electrical Power Subsytem (EPS) passed the preliminary design review.In addition, currently, I am the radiation engineer in charge of the “new space” projects in Spain, new European launchers (Ariane 6 and VEGA C) and constellations projects (OneSat). These “new space” projects are pretty important because they are opening a new space business in which the units will be built using commercial parts (COTS). These projects are pretty challenging because it is needed to ensure that COTS will properly work in radiation environments.My functions as Radiation Enginner are:* Perform a preliminary analysis of the radiation environments.* Write test plans for TID, TNID and SEE tests.* Analyse TID, TNID and SEE test reports.* Study the TID and TNID behaviour of the EEE parts and provide inputs to designer for the WCA.* Make the SEE event rate calculations.* Review the design countermeasures in order to mitigate the SET/SEU/SEFI impact at the unit level.* Review the application conditions and ensure that no destructive events like SEL/SEDR/SEB/SEGR will happen.* Write a radiation analysis at unit level explaining every step in the process.* At last, but not at least, to keep meetings between ESA and customer in order to clarify their questions related to the radiation impact on the unit performances.

    Ciemat Jan 2010 - Jul 2014
    I've been working at DES (Dark Energy Survey) and PAU (Physics of the Accelerating Universe). Basically, I studied the LSS of the Universe through the cosmic magnification, more specifically I looked for the magnification signal on the galaxy-galaxy angular cross-correlation function (number counts, not shear-correlations) getting the first detecction on DES.
