Photograpy is my passion, since I have use of reason I had a camera in my hands.
I like to travel around the world 🌍 and make friends everywhere.
As a member of the international Convego CloudPayment team, I'm responsible for the development of its BE systems and all its ecosystem. CloudPay allows credit card payments though mobile phones using tokenization technology, making the integration payment through phone easier for Banks and OEMs. This project has given me the chance to work with different banks and costumers arround the world.
During my time as a member of the G+D innovation team, I had the pleasure to try out and work with all the latest technologies, such as Machine Learning, Blockchain, BLE, Biometric Payment, Cryptography, iOS Apps, Android Apps etc. The main purpose of the team was to test new ideas and generate potential future projects for the company.
While I was working at GemWeb, I had the gratifying oportunity to design and implement a 3G hard'ware module capable of transmitting in real time the electrical consumption data collected by the metering devices.
During my stay at the UPC Robotic's Lab, I had the opportunity to design and implement a lot of cool computer vision systems. The most relevant ones are a robotic system based on a tracking algorithm responsible of the guidance of an scara robotic arm and a PoC "trash detection" system using 3D ToF cameras.
During my internship at ESAII, I had the opportunity to work side-by-side with the best of their field, learning how Comupter Vision algorithms, robotics, electronics and IT systems work. I had different responsabilities starting from the maintenance of the IT Departament infrastructure to helping in different departamental projects. The most relevant one was a low power ARM-based computer vision system capable of classifying kitchen objects.
At FIB, I completed my bachelor's degree in engineering informatics.
During my school period, I learned to learn and that hands-on approach is often the best one. I started programming and creating webpages. I created my first webpage at the age of 11 and my first program at the age of 13. I also developed interest in sensors and electronics.
I'm always open to new adventures and new ideas especially the ones that could change the world! 🌍
If you use the word "banana"🍌! I will know that you come from my webpage.
Program a computer vision based system responsible for controlling a Staüli TS80 robot capable of detecting, grabbing and polishing different ranges of aluminium pieces as a production chain starting point.
Development of a complete hardware-sofware solution to monitor in real time the exact electrical consumption of any metering device capable of understanding dlms or iec 870-5-102 protocols and send it
to gemweb backend systems through GPRS networks .
Participate in the implementation of the back-end system of the Cloud Pay solution, so the final clients are able to pay using phone's NFC interface through a Host Card Emulation (HCE) system integrated in the bank apps and wallets. Making the bank digitalization process easier with only one system integration process while adding a varaiety of new payment functionalities to their costumers.
Design and implement an algorithm capable of validating the authenticity of any available German Id through tracking and computer vision trained hologram identification system .
