About

Education

• Ph.D. in Software Engineering (in progress)

  · Universidad Tecnológica de Panamá
  2025 - 2027 (expected) · Panamá, Panama
  • Research focus: AI-assisted software engineering (code intelligence, RAG over eng docs, test generation).
  • Methods: empirical SE + A/B evals on developer workflows (latency, accuracy, task success).
  • Early milestone: prototype policy-aware RAG patterns for regulated domains (health, finance).

• M.Sc. in Applied AI Engineering (in progress)

  · Tecnológico de Monterrey
  2025 - 2027 (expected) · Mexico (remote)
  • Coursework (planned/current): LLMs, MLOps, model serving, prompt/eval design.
  • Built/deployed RAG + tool-calling service with observability (traces, p95, error budgets).
  • Cloud stack: GCP/AWS, containerized inference, vector DB benchmarking.

• M.Sc. in Software Engineering
