What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an engineering role where I can develop embedded and hardware solutions—especially wearables—work with sensing and BLE, and collaborate on prototyping and data-driven features while growing my technical depth.

I’m a Mechatronics Engineering student at Javeriana University (Bogota), specializing in embedded systems, hardware design, and CAD modeling. I’m drawn to building practical solutions that connect sensing, communication, and real-world usability.

My current thesis project is an embedded smartwatch system for daily activity monitoring. I’m integrating biometric sensors, BLE communication, and a Machine Learning classification approach to turn raw signals into meaningful activity insights.

I bring hands-on engineering curiosity from personal projects too, including a robotic arm manipulator with joystick control and movement sensing. I value clear problem-solving, iterative prototyping, and collaboration across technical and multidisciplinary teams.
