Summary
Antonio Cantero is an experienced telecommunications engineer and secondary education teacher with over 10 years of broad IT and rail-signaling experience, combining hands-on embedded and real-time software work with project and service management. He has led complex railway control and ERTMS projects, developed and commissioned safety-critical systems using Unix/Linux and PLCs, and later translated that expertise into training and consultancy in automation, renewable energy and ICT. As a teacher and freelance project manager he blends technical depth (C/C++, Java, SCADA, PLCs) with strong communication and vendor-selection skills, regularly delivering turnkey solutions and professional training programs. Fluent in Spanish and English and open to international travel, he seeks to pivot back into software engineering and consulting, turning a lifelong mix of computing and design passions into commercial impact. An often overlooked strength is his track record of moving between high-stakes industrial deployments and classroom instruction, which sharpens both his technical rigor and his ability to explain complex systems.
