About Miguel

Soy Miguel Fornell, un desarrollador senior con amplía experiencia en el research y automoción.

Ayudo a fabricantes, Tier-1 y operadores de infraestructura ITS a mantener conformidad continua con UN R155, ISO/SAE 21434, NIS2 y EU AI Act, integrando los requisitos regulatorios directamente en plataformas V2X, firmware embebido y arquitecturas críticas.

No trabajo únicamente en auditoría o documentación: mantengo el CSMS y la evidencia de conformidad vivos, trazables y auditables durante todo el ciclo de vida del producto.

Mi enfoque combina compliance y ingeniería real. Trabajo directamente sobre los sistemas que deben asegurarse y certificarse:

• V2X: LTE-V2X / NR-V2X, sidelink PC5
• GNSS de alta precisión: RTK, PPP, doble antena, u-blox
• Firmware embebido en C/C++ sobre RTOS
• Redes CAN-FD y arquitecturas AUTOSAR
• Sistemas críticos bajo ISO 26262 e IEC 61508

Esto me permite traducir requisitos regulatorios en decisiones de arquitectura defendibles ante auditoría y viables para equipos de desarrollo.

Experiencia aplicada en:

• Infraestructura ITS desplegada en producción
• Interoperabilidad de stacks V2X y reguladores de tráfico
• Laboratorios de testing automotriz instrumentados
• TCU 5G/V2X, CAN bus, DMS, UWB y redes 5G privadas
• Testing, virtualización y validación de sistemas cooperativos

Además, participo en publicaciones técnicas y proyectos de investigación relacionados con V2X, edge computing, ITS cooperativos y servicios ETSI para conducción conectada y automatizada.

Trabajo principalmente en modalidad de asesoría recurrente / retainer, integrándome con equipos técnicos como capa de observabilidad, compliance y continuidad regulatoria sobre sistemas ya desplegados.
