Message

At ER Sistemi S.p.a., I programmed PLC and HMI systems for automated pharmaceutical production, tested electrical panels, and carried out FAT and SAT testing. I also drafted testing protocols and O&M manuals.

Across industrial automation projects in Italy and internationally, I’ve worked with Siemens and Allen-Bradley PLCs, Emerson Ovation DCS/SCADA, and automated production systems. I’ve also applied artificial intelligence tools, including ChatGPT, to advanced Siemens PLC programming.
