Hi, there! I am Jorge from Mexico City.

As a professional, I define myself as a Computer Scientist with a special interest in ML. As an individual, I like to see myself as a curious guy always trying to avoid the comfort zone 🤓.

The professional me.

I started my career as a Software Engineer and later I moved into the world of Data Science. I embrace the idea that to make the best out of data, theory is just as important as one’s hands-on skills. Thus, I like dealing with papers and data but developing scalable code and pipelines on the way too.

Right now, I work as an applied ML Engineer building Neural Machine Translation solutions at a scale. Previously, I researched and applied deep learning for the healthcare industry. Before that, I researched novel methods for AutoML and Neural Architecture Search using reinforcement learning and meta-learning.

On the engineering side, I have experience with cloud infrastructure, DevOps, MLOps, management of databases and data lakes, and simple web development. I am knowledgeable in several programming languages and frameworks.

The out-of-office me.

I try to keep a balance between my professional and personal life. I particularly invest time with my loved ones. I like going to concerts, playing guitar, swimming, learning languages, traveling and getting to know other cultures. I am also very interested in helping the battle against climate change.
