About Hugo

>> Approved CII <<
As an embedded systems engineer by training, I am at your disposal to assist you in your electronic and technical projects and prototypes. My expertise covers the creation and testing of devices integrating mechanical, electronic, and/or embedded software components.

With over 10 years of experience, 50 clients, and over 100 missions to my credit, I know how to adapt to your issues and environments to effectively meet your needs.

I also offer personalized advice to guide you on the technologies to adopt, highlighting their advantages and disadvantages, and evaluating the technical feasibility of your project. I am ready to take over existing work or replace an unavailable engineer, even for specialized subjects.

Each mission is unique and adapted to the specific needs of each client. Here's how I usually proceed:

Advice, critique, and optimization of elements provided by the client: €80, deductible from the following mission.

Reception and critical review of the specifications, followed by a fixed-price quote proposal

Working in technical assistance on the issue, with an agile approach. I try as much as possible to integrate agility into the requests, although this methodology is by definition not very compatible with a fixed-price mission.

Development and testing of solutions.

Regular follow-up to ensure good communication and effective project control by the client.

Closing of the mission with delivery and verification of all sources and materials by the client.

For fixed-price missions, two months of support are included for all points addressed in the specifications.

Experience

  • MISSION CONTROL LAB

    Creation of a series of custom PCBs
    November 2019 - November 2019
    Lille, France
    For the Dutch/American company: https://missioncontrollab.com/ , I designed a series of 7 electronic measurement boards with the following specificities:
    -functional (not the most difficult)
    -aesthetic
    -functional penalization but also aesthetic.
    As the board is the final product, without a case, it is important that the boards are aesthetic. This aspect is often neglected by companies (often with reason), which makes this mission particularly interesting.

Hugo is an unparalleled asset for your mission, he will guide you at each stage of its realization by providing you with the maximum of pedagogical answers possible, I was very happy with his responsiveness and the advice he gave me as the project progressed He answered me during the day and even in the evening sometimes which is very reassuring when you want to make changes to your project, the response times are tedious! I recommend hugo to add a touch of freshness to your ideas
