SCADA and WFMS engineer at Siemens Gamesa, engineering control systems for a multi-country wind fleet.

Spain
Message

At Siemens Gamesa, I lead the SCADA and Wind Farm Management System engineering team responsible for monitoring and controlling a multi-country wind fleet. I work on PLC control software and diagnose protection-logic defects.

I also design C#/.NET tooling and OPC UA server integrations that move real-time data between PLCs and SCADA. I run Oracle and Linux-based high-availability infrastructure, including failover and split-brain recovery.

At AvanzaliaEnergía, I helped build a delegated control center connecting solar PV plants to Red Eléctrica de España. I implemented real-time telemetry and telecontrol links using IEC 60870-5-104, IEC 61850, ICCP, OPC, and Modbus.

Earlier, I commissioned and started up the AD8-180 offshore prototype in Bremerhaven, and developed turbine automation for the AD8-180 and AD5-132. My experience also includes SCADA platform development, renewable plant control systems, and GMP-validated production automation.
