About

Advanced Mechanical Engineering student (Mechatronics) with hands-on experience designing industrial control and automation systems. I recently led the conceptual engineering design for an automated firefighting-foam production process, including a full Purdue-model (ISA-95) control architecture with PLC, VFDs, and SCADA — reducing process deviation to under ±5% and removing dependency on manual operator judgment. My core strength is translating a mechanical or process problem into a complete, working system: from 3D modeling and technical drawings (CATIA, NX, SolidWorks) to control logic and simulation (MATLAB, EcoStruxure). Currently finishing my capstone project, an electric wheelchair with an active rowing mechanism. Available for CAD modeling, technical documentation, and automation/control design work.

Experience

Process Automation Engineering Intern Química Sigma · Internship Mar 2026 – May 2026 2 mos Quilmes Designed a conceptual automation proposal for a firefighting-foam production process, ensuring compliance with ISO 9001:2015 standards. Developed a control architecture based on the Purdue Model (ISA-95) using PLC, variable frequency drives, and SCADA. Integrated critical equipment and reduced agitation speed deviation to under ±5% versus reference value, eliminating reliance on operator judgment. Delivered a preliminary investment and economic feasibility estimate alongside the technical proposal.

Education

Instituto Tecnológico de Buenos Aires (ITBA) Mechanical Engineer, Mechatronics 2019 – 2026 Capstone project: "e-Row" — a modular electric wheelchair with an active rowing propulsion system (final defense expected October 2026). Coursework and practical labs focused on mechanical design, control systems, and mechatronics integration.

Other experience

Mathematics Tutor — FORTE Program Delivered intensive math tutoring (6 hrs/week, individual and small-group format) for secondary school students under a Buenos Aires Province educational support program. Planned lessons and created custom study material, coordinating with the teaching staff to improve student outcomes.
