Professional summary

Hardware engineer with more than 33 years of experience in digital design, FPGA-based systems, and high-speed electronics. My work has taken me from ultra-high-volume consumer products to specialized equipment for space, maritime, and medical applications. This breadth has given me both deep technical expertise and the ability to see connections across industries and technologies. As an independent consultant I support companies that need specialist knowledge, additional capacity, or a steady hand to move critical projects forward. I have led hardware design for space cameras, redesigned FPGA-based CPU boards for maritime engines, and uncovered issues in medical devices before they reached the market. In each case my contribution has been to bring structure, solve technical problems, and secure products that perform reliably in demanding environments. Work best in collaboration with skilled colleagues and take pride in making technical data clear for different stakeholders. Curiosity, integrity, and flexibility guide how I approach my work, while my structured mindset allows me to integrate quickly into new settings. Whether leading a project or acting as a specialist, I aim to make a tangible difference in both the process and the final product.
