I am an engineer with a Master’s degree in Astrophysics, currently working at GMV in R&D focused on multi-sensor data fusion and object tracking. My work spans classical estimation and tracking methods (Kalman-based filters, JPDA, MHT) as well as AI-enhanced approaches, applied to real-time radar and EO/IR sensor systems. I have a strong interest in Machine Learning and Computer Vision, particularly in perception, tracking, and sensor fusion problems. Through both research and development, I have worked across the full pipeline—from sensor simulation and real-time C++ systems to Python-based fusion frameworks deployed at scale—always with an emphasis on performance, robustness, and real-world applicability. I particularly enjoy tackling complex, open-ended problems, breaking them down into solvable components, and iterating until reliable solutions are achieved. Beyond the technical side, I bring a relentless, proactive mindset shaped by years of practicing demanding team and individual sports such as American football and Brazilian jiu-jitsu. These experiences have reinforced my ability to work under pressure, collaborate effectively, and take leadership when needed. I value teamwork, continuous learning, and taking initiative to drive projects forward. I am currently seeking opportunities in Computer Vision and Machine Learning, where I can continue to grow as an engineer while contributing to impactful, high-performance systems.

Work Experience

DATA ENGINEER (MACHINE LEARNING) at GMV Tres Cantos
July 1, 2023 - Present
Researched state-of-the-art data fusion algorithms for multi-sensor systems (RADAR/Multi Camera, RADAR+Camera) for object detection, tracking and segmentation. Built automated CI/CD pipelines on Jenkins and GitLab CI for containerized apps using Docker. Led implementation of classical tracking methods (Extended/Unscented Kalman Filter) and AI-enhanced approaches (KalmanNet, DANSE) in Python. Created a micro-services testing pipeline with Kubernetes deployment and Pulumi IaC. Worked with large datasets using SQL (SQLite, Postgres, MariaDB). Managed a Linux server for a 15-person team, provisioning resources and deploying tools such as Portainer, k3d and OpenWebUI.
RESEARCHER: MEMBER OF NANOMAGNETISM GROUP at CIC NANONGUNE
June 1, 2021 - August 1, 2021
Researched ferromagnetic phase transitions in exchange-graded layers. Participated in the design and creation of samples with varying layer compositions and widths via atomic layer deposition. Implemented data analysis on the experiment results and plotted findings with Python.
