UX with an engineering background, for systems where errors are costly.

I started at the factory as a helper, assisting with steam-turbine assembly processes and preparing tools for machining. As an industrial engineer I prepared equipment for balancing steam-turbine rotors at high speed in a vacuum, with my first contact with technology for automating drawings and specification processes for turbine assembly and machining in SAP, PTC Creo and AutoCAD. I served the factory in non-conformity situations and worked on solving problems caused by design failures.

Then I moved into construction engineering, where I defined the product and its internal equipment such as emergency valves, rotors and blade carriers, until I became technical lead. There I was in charge of managing client demands from different sectors like sugar & alcohol, paper & pulp, thermal power plants, creating and elaborating diagrams (P&IDs) to define the different equipment in the power-generation system, whether pumps, condensers, instrumentation.

Until I became an application engineer, responsible for the thermodynamic sizing of steam turbines and their auxiliaries such as gearboxes and generators. There I developed computer-aided side projects for better results with the thermodynamic calculations. Looking for intuitive ways to calculate, with an always creative mind, I founded Beabstracto, which alongside my work at Siemens helped several small businesses in my hometown position themselves on social media and the internet by creating websites, videos and marketing material.

Until I moved to Germany, where I worked as a UX designer at different companies in the Munich region, initially serving an agency that attended clients such as Siemens, a car manufacturer, MER and GS+Werkzeugmaschinen, creating platforms, internal software and design systems.

I founded my first UX community, which took me to the Google stage and supported more than 350 designers in the Munich region with free events featuring specialists in the field.

Until I stabilised Beabstracto as a company that today has a team of 5 designers where I act as lead, serving clients across different areas such as industrial furnaces, banking and tax software, ITSM and cloud management, document management systems, AI-first engineering-aided design and much more.
