I provide consulting and engineering services in the field of IoT, cloud infrastructure, and network protocols, helping companies design and build reliable, scalable, and production grade connected systems.

Key focus areas:
• Architecture design (device-to-cloud flows, protocol stacks, API layers)
• Software development (Node.js, Python, MQTT, REST/CoAP, etc.)
• Technical advisory (solution reviews, R&D prototyping, tech strategy)
• Client support across the full lifecycle: pre-sales, implementation, training, and post deployment optimization
From early-stage product ideas to mature platforms, I bring a mix of technical depth, field experience, and strategic input.
myDevices Inc.
Lead R&D Engineer
October 2015 - January 2025 (9 years and 3 months)
Los Angeles, CA, USA
I joined myDevices to continue the journey initiated with WebIOPi, by contributing to Cayenne, the world's first drag‑and‑drop IoT project builder.

Over time, Cayenne evolved into the foundation of IoTinaBox, a fully packaged, plug‑and‑play IoT solution tailored for commercial deployments. I was deeply involved in this transition, from prototyping and core architecture to customer-facing features, helping create one of the easiest and most complete IoT deployment tools on the market.

My work spanned architecture, development, and strategic input across multiple layers of the platform:
• Collaborated daily with cross-continental teams on large-scale IoT deployments.
• Provided deep expertise in network and telecom protocols
• Designed and implemented critical software components across the stack
• Acted as a technical liaison between Engineering, Product, and Business teams, ensuring strong alignment between market needs and technical capabilities.
• Delivered internal trainings and knowledge-sharing sessions
• Contributed to pre-sales and post-sales support
• Played a key role in product and architectural decision-making, shaping the platform's long-term vision.
