Alessandro Baldussu studied Mechanical Engineering at the University of Florence, where he first explored reciprocating compressor technology through a 2005 patent study on HydroCOM regulation methodologies. He deepened his knowledge of reciprocating engines in his master’s thesis and later specialized in advanced design methodologies during his Ph.D. in 2014 at Politecnico di Milano and TU Munich.

Alessandro began his career at Nuovo Pignone, where he gained extensive design experience on capital parts and advanced to lead torsional vibration analysis for reciprocating compressors and hyper compressors. He later joined Baker Hughes as Technology Partnership Leader, before becoming Engineering Manager at HOERBIGER Benelux, consolidating his expertise in capital part design and leading solutions for upgrades.

Since 2022, he has served as Global Product Manager for Customer Training at HOERBIGER Wien, where he shares his technical expertise through qualification programs and the field service academy, enabling customers to work with reciprocating compressors using proper methods and terminology.
