Summary

I am a Telecommunications Engineer with dual Canadian and Angolan nationality, holding a Bachelor’s Degree from Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications. Since 2022, I have been working at Capgemini Engineering as an Associate I – Associate Industrial Ops Engineer, contracted to Nokia, where I contribute to the BHP Australia Project in the Front Office, focusing on alarm monitoring and network reliability. My background combines technical expertise in telecommunications with hands-on experience in industrial operations and network performance.

Currently, I am pursuing a Master’s Degree in Engineering Management at the University of Colorado Boulder, where I am exploring how Artificial Intelligence and innovative technologies can be leveraged to optimize engineering operations and improve network efficiency. I am particularly passionate about bridging technical knowledge and management skills to drive smarter, data-driven decision-making in engineering environments.
