Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolNilton Diniz is a Senior Development Engineer specializing in spark ignition engines with nine years of hands-on experience across automotive R&D, academia, and industrial projects. Based in Graz, he combines deep powertrain expertise—engine and transmission design, simulation, control, and testing—with practical skills in ECU calibration, hybrid systems, and rapid prototyping. His background spans tier-one engineering at AVL and Fiat/Fiat Chrysler, leading research projects at UFMG, and coordinating open-innovation labs, reflecting a rare blend of system-level thinking and hardware/software integration. Known for translating complex requirements into calibrated, cost-estimated solutions, he is as comfortable with MATLAB/Simulink and Motec tooling as with CAD, PCB design, and dyno testing. Colleagues describe him as a creative, efficient manager who balances multi-task scheduling with hands-on problem solving—an engineer who still codes and prototypes with the motto “We Code!”
