Your organization field and mission

We engineer solutions for our customers’ greatest challenges with reliable, cloud to edge computing, inspired by Moore’s Law.

Please tell us briefly about your role in the company / at your organization:

Advising customers on benefits of technology adoption.

Your interest in STEM

Since I was a child, I knew I wanted to make my mark on the world in a positive and enduring way. Engineers research, invent and refine processes across a wide range of fields… so I had clear what was the best path to follow.

Definitely, my parents: their commitment to serve society through work and daily effort has inspired me from the very beginning and during my career.

Your studies

A big part of transitioning to university life was learning how to study effectively, how to manage the time and keep working on physical and mental health.

Think of the person you’ll like to be in ten years: just list the steps and focus on your objective.

You at work

A great balance of professional and personal growth, dedicating time to my job as to my family and hobbies.

Choose the most challenging paths during your career and don’t be afraid about difficulties. The more problems you face the more resilient you’ll be.

Your point of view

Technology can be used to support personal interests and balance different aspects in our lives: so embracing technology means embracing balance on personal and professional aspirations.

When designing, building or implementing any solution, think about its impact in society. Fall in love with the problem you’re solving, so you’ll succeed in the solution.

People will not see tech engineers like nerds but builders of a better world.

To finish with

Respect, love, service.

Publishment of opinion pieces of technology on popular newspapers.

I hope I’ll keep growing in a multinational company.
