Ferds Magallanes

Hi! I’m Fernando Magallanes Jr.-Ferds for short-a Manufacturing Engineering graduate at De La Salle University-Manila and a DOST-SEI Scholar based in Taguig City. Get to know me more on this website of mine as I share my career and personal journey!

–Career Goals and Dreams–

As I delve into the industrial world particularly on its specifics on mechatronics and robotics, my current goal right after graduation is to pursue a job within the manufacturing industry here in the Philippines. I aim on becoming one of the key proponents that will bring forth industry 4.0 in the country excelling in the fields of mechanical design, embedded systems, and data science .

At last update, I’m engaged in a funded project as a technical lead on the development and construction of a compact anaerobic digester within my university’s campus. I am tasked with the automation, instrumentation and control as well as the remote monitoring of this system. This comes after proposing an idea to repurpose solid waste as fuel for cooking.

A dream of mine is to see a local autonomous robot sorting system on a materials recovery facility here in the country just like this one overseas by AMP robotics! Establishing a recycling infrastructure of this scale would be transformative, and I am committed to developing the competencies needed to one day contribute to such operations.

With that being said, this website serves as a way to showcase my experience, work and upskillings done to be of service! I’ll also be sharing some personal interests whenever I find the time :> Thanks for visiting!
