I held various roles such as apprentice engineer, draftsman, applications engineer, sales support, proposals engineer, and finally, programmer. Besides the purely technical aspects, I realized how much is done and needs to be done in a company to generate revenue, from the micro to the macro level.
A year later, I began my career as a "technical instructor" at Rockwell Automation, where a 26-year-old me was teaching courses to people with 26 years of experience! I had to develop leadership and confidence techniques, not just theoretically but also with the help of great factory professionals and many good people who sometimes walk beside us in life.
At Rockwell Automation, I acquired technical, managerial, and administrative knowledge and prepared myself to take the next step: starting my own company. And so it happened in September 2014, when we laid the first stone of VDA Services. We started in Venezuela, worked in the USA, and established our foundations in Chile.
I continued to meet great professionals, including Chady Abdul (current VP of Adasoft International), which allowed us to join one of the most important technology service companies in the world: Adasoft International. Today, we live in perfect synergy that allows us to offer local service with global experience. Read less
