Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolÁlan Sousa is a systems-oriented development engineer with 11 years of experience blending mechatronics, control theory and software to build high-level autonomy for agricultural robots. Currently at VitiBot, he develops the software stack for autonomous tractors and robots, translating control research from his PhD in Automatique et Traitement de Signal into robust field systems. His background spans hands-on power-electronics measurement tools, mechatronics degrees from institutions in Brazil and Europe, and a doctoral focus that sharpens his approach to signal processing and control. Prior service as a firefighter and diver reflects a calm, practical problem-solving style under pressure and a penchant for operational safety. Comfortable across hardware-software boundaries, he brings a rare combination of academic rigor and field-proven engineering to autonomous systems in agriculture.
