Summary
As an independent Technology Consultant specializing in Information Engineering, I provide high-level expertise in model-based optimal control, artificial intelligence, and machine learning. My work is defined by a rigorous System Engineering approach, managing the full project lifecycle from initial planning and requirements review to detailed design, implementation, and final system acceptance testing. I offer specialized support in system analysis, identification, and dynamic modelling, as well as the design of advanced control strategies including linear, nonlinear, adaptive, and Model Predictive Control. My experience extends to the integration of machine learning solutions for automotive systems and autonomous driving, specifically leveraging ROS and ROS2 for the development of advanced controllers for unmanned vehicles and autonomous robots. This includes the development of real-time control software, signal processing, and Hardware-in-the-Loop test facilities. I collaborate with global industrial leaders across diverse sectors, including Aerospace, Automotive, Renewables, and Power Electronics, while also delivering bespoke training courses and technology transfer on advanced control and ML topics.
