Senior Researcher

• Backoffice contributor to 3GPP RAN2 standardization in NR and mMTC areas since Release 16. A particular focus was reserved in coordinating cross working group issues and preparing a solid concept basis for argumentation.
• Two-year experience as team leader of the feature team handling MTC standardization activities. During this time I learned how to enable a successful and productive work environment for all team members, basic elements of project management and I completed the Ericsson Leaders Core Curriculum (LCC) course.
• Involved in 6G research and internal strategy discussions regarding NTN with a particular focus on satellites. During this time, I had the chance to be task leader in 6G-SKY EU project with a focus on 3D architectures for terrestrial users.
• In the context of the NTN activities, I developed a system level simulator for NTN scenarios based on MATLAB and employing several mathematical and statistical models for interference estimation and scheduling as well as a realistic global coordinate system and elements of orbital mechanics. This simulator allowed a better internal understanding of the NTN area.
• Over 20 publications and filed patents were published during my time in Ericsson. A detailed list is maintained here

Component Specialist Junior

• Involved in Alfa Romeo “Giorgio” Project, more specifically in the design of the Giulia. My main activity consisted in following the software development of components related to the Driver Station, in particular the Instrument Cluster.

Technical Consultant for Alstom

• My main activity consisted in the development and validation of Human Machine Interface software for the management of railway electrical plants.

Ericsson Leadership Core Curriculum (LCC)

• The Leaders Core Curriculum (LCC) is Ericsson’s foundation-level leadership development program that focuses on developing the core leadership capabilities needed to drive performance. Over the course of this 15-week program, leaders develop their self-awareness, learn how to flex their leadership style, understand what drives and motivates a team, and how to influence and collaborate effectively across a matrix organization.
