Henrique Portela is an electronic engineer with 15 years’ experience building high-performance FPGA-centric hardware and RF prototypes end-to-end—from schematic and multilayer PCB layout (up to 14 layers) to SI/PI-aware multi-GHz design, RTL (VHDL) integration, bring-up and validation. He has taken CMOS RFIC designs through tape-out and on-wafer characterization, and has deep hands-on expertise with DDR-class interfaces, embedded control planes (Nios II/Avalon) and power/PDN design. At Petrobras CENPES he bridges research and execution, structuring technical evaluations and procurement paths to turn research needs into compliant, executable projects. Known for translating complex lab prototypes into field-ready solutions, he also led large-scale operational rollouts offshore, training 200+ technicians under tight production schedules. Based in Rio de Janeiro, he combines academic rigor (MSc in Telecommunications) with practical, cross-disciplinary delivery across RF, microwave, DSP and digital electronics.
