Meet the Principal Engineer

Newton Rufino, MS

System Integrator specializing in High-Precision Electro-Mechanical Systems & Custom Software Integration.

With a Master’s in Mechanical Engineering and a deep focus on machine design and critical safety systems. My experience ranges from developing explosion-proof testing fixtures for lithium batteries to architecting secure "Lab-as-a-Service" facilities that allow remote hardware control via custom networks.

I founded Neo Automations to bridge the gap between mechanical reliability and software intelligence. While traditional firms separate these disciplines, I integrate them. Whether it is a 50-micron laser inspection station or a local LLM assistant for protocol automation, I build the full stack: the steel, the circuit, and the code.
