Freelancer profile translated to English.
Back to original languageAbout Hugo
I design reliable electronic and mechatronic systems, conceived to go all the way to the finished product — without cost overruns or delays.
After more than 15 years supporting startups, SMEs, and industrial companies, including a CTO position leading a technical team, I have developed a simple approach: get straight to the real need, avoid unnecessary complexity, and deliver.
My goal: transform your idea into a functional, industrializable, and controlled product.
Specifically:
Electronic design (PCB, component selection, industrial constraints)
Firmware / embedded systems
Rapid prototyping and field iterations
Preparation for industrialization (DFM, costs, reliability)
I am particularly comfortable with unusual projects, "difficult to find" requirements, or subjects where structuring technical decisions need to be made quickly.
My method:
Clear scope from the start
Precise costing (no surprises)
Pragmatic and maintainable solutions
What sets me apart:
Complete product vision (not just an isolated PCB or code)
Ability to simplify architectures → more robust and less expensive
Strong field experience (real constraints, not theoretical)
If you are looking for someone who challenges your technical choices to secure your project, I would be pleased to discuss it.
