Hi, I'm
Frank Ortiz Jara
Mechatronics Engineer
Automation Robotics IoT HealthTech Applied AI
I build systems where software meets the physical world: sensors, controllers, machines and clinical equipment. I design the hardware, write the firmware, build the backend and deploy it on site.
Based in Barcelona · Master in Automation and Robotics, UPC School 2026–2027
About me
Mechatronics engineer working on digital and technology projects since 2012, moving from digital communication and web development into automation, robotics, IoT, clinical interoperability and applied artificial intelligence.
My recent work is in healthcare: hospital IoT systems, HL7 integration of biomedical monitors and automated patient communication platforms. Before that I led robotics and industrial automation projects. I am now in Barcelona studying a Master in Automation and Robotics Projects at UPC School, and looking for roles in industrial automation, robotics, IoT and medical technology in Spain.
