Summary
Antonello Cherubini is an engineer and project officer with 11 years of experience bridging academic research and product development across robotics, autonomous driving, and renewable energy. He holds a PhD from Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna and has transitioned from hands-on R&D and assistant professorship—collaborating with industry partners like Stellantis and CRF—to managing projects at the European Commission. His background spans mechanical design, certification-driven product specification, airborne wind energy, and autonomous vehicle systems, giving him a rare mix of lab-grade research rigor and field-focused product sensibility. International experience, including an exchange at Tongji University and work abroad early in his career, underpins his adaptability and readiness to travel for assignments. Known for turning complex engineering requirements into testable bill-of-materials and certified products, he combines technical depth with stakeholder-facing skills from sales events to academic teaching. Based in Ispra, Italy, he brings a results-oriented approach and a track record of moving innovations from prototype to regulated production contexts.
