- Validation of embedded SW of Merging Units with respect to clients requisites and standards IEC61850 and IEC61869. - Test automation using Python and Robot framework.

- Same technical activities as previous position with the addition of leading the functional validation and test automation group within the R&D Laboratory. - Training and task management of group members to achieve validation goals. - Assistance to Team Lead to plan and track activities, resources and schedules of incoming projects for the team. - Responsible for technical requirements and deliverables acceptance for major innovation projects in partnership with ASSERT Lab from IFPB (Paraíba Federal Institute).

- The main activity is the development of scripts for automated testing of electricity meters, using mainly Excel, Notepad++ and Visual Studio Code. The tests cover functional tests as well as from industry standards. Some examples: tariff tests, calendar, screens, power quality, demand, load profile, logs, security, etc. Tests that cannot or are too expensive to be automated are performed manually. Tests are managed using Microsoft Team Foundation Server tool. - Development of test tools, including Excel spreadsheets, electronic data acquisition circuits with Raspberry Pi and ATMEGA, C# software for interfaces using Visual Studio and Python using PyCharm. Innovations: - Creation and maintenance of drivers for proprietary automated testing software (ATS) in C#, enabling testing of new interfaces for Landis+Gyr products, such as PLC Meters and More, SGP+M, ABNT, GSIS, DLMS, among others. Development in partnership with a global team, collaborating through TFS and GIT. - Creation of automated report generator using Python and Jinja. The generator connects to the TFS and lists all tests and results, as well as the bugs found and the status of the correction. - Adaptation of C# code of the ATS software to enable execution in Linux environment, focusing on Raspberry Pi, being a pioneer within the global team. Reduced costs by 90%. - Creation of driver and electronic circuit to replace functionality of off-the-shelf dataloggers and counters, reducing costs. - Creation of spreadsheet and VBA module to facilitate and automate the generation of automated tests (scripts), making the process of creating new tests much faster and more accurate. - Creation of tool to export test results from TFS to PowerBI allowing better validation management.

- Automation of electronic energy meter tests, involving hardware, firmware and software development. Integration between Serial and GPIB protocols, softwares like CamCal and Excel, reference meters and power supplies MTE and ZERA.

- Design and installation of residential and commercial photovoltaic systems. Used Tier 1 solar panels and inverters Bosch BPT-S and SMA SunnyBoy. To aid the project of the solar systems the Nearmap software was used. - In addition to projects, to ensure performance and reliability the systems were monitored in real-time via web portals. In case of fault, the problem is detected and if necessary a field trip was made to solve the problem. Developed a tool in Excel to generate projects paperwork automatically, making errors less likely to happen. - Hands on experience with solar systems installations, from initial project, solar panels, inverters and mounting gear preparation, following up installation process and system commissioning.

- Powertrain Electronic Control Unit (ECU) testing at system level. Tested Engine ECU and Transmission ECU software using automotive tools as Vector CANalyzer, ATI Vision, ETAS INCA and others. Used Controller Area Network (CAN) and On-board Diagnostics (OBD) interfaces. The tests made helped detecting and reporting problems before the vehicle reach the field. - Created and updated Test Descriptions and Test Reports, using Microsoft Word for editing and Serena Dimensions for version control. This allowed new software version, platforms and functions to be tested. - Developed testing hardware, improving connectivity and interfaces, making tests more reliable.
