I'm a motivated Argentinian Mechanical Engineer recently settled in
Copenhagen, driven here by the eagerness to contribute with my design skills
and analytical mindset to the state-of-the-art Scandinavian Industry.
I offer Mechanical Design experience, designing machines and metallic
structures for industrial applications, using mostly SolidWorks and AutoCAD to
develop 3D models, 2D technical drawings for manufacturing, and performing
FEA simulation. In addition to analytical and project management skills, I have a
strong technical mindset and I enjoy working in several environments among
office, workshop and sites.
My passion is to solve technical issues in order to achieve elegant solutions,
applying my background knowledge and I always strive to improve my skills.
I have an open-minded and outgoing personality, and I thrive in communicative
team-based environments. I enjoy challenges and strive to deliver high-quality
work.

Alongside with my professional goal quest here in Scandinavia, I had the luck
to work at Donkey's Workshop during the Winter Checkup, as part of the
mechanic team, repairing and maintaining the whole Copenhagen bike fleet.
- Maintained and repaired over 2500 Donkey manual & electric bikes.
- Debugged electronic hardware issues for Electric Bikes.
- Applied LEAN to processes and workflow.
- Liaise between riders and customer service.
Achievement: I developed and implemented an IT system that increased the

· Coordinator of Electric Supply Shut Down
- Directed shut down schedules and deadlines to different Electric Supplier Companies along the country.
More than 40 including private and governmental.
- Reported to The Secretariat of Energy (Argentine State) and CAMMESA's CEO.
- Coordinated with financial area to notify companies about the shut down conditions.
- Coordinated with Operative Control for electrical maneuvers.
This was a fast pace duty where errors could have political and mass media repercussions, as well as provoke
technical issues to the electric system of the country.
Achievement: I developed and implemented a system that improved this task, increasing the number of
simultaneous manageable cases from 10 to 60.
· Wholesale Electricity Market Advisor
- Provided regulatory-technical advisory and support to stakeholders (WEM’s Agents), potential investors,
politicians and interested parties through personal meetings and phone calls.
For this position I studied from scratch technical and regulatory aspects of the energy field, dedicating a large
amount of personal time and resources. I successfully became a specialist among my area and a modest reference
within the energy field in Argentina.
