Diego Cores is a data and AI leader with 11 years’ experience building production-grade Big Data and ML systems from streaming pipelines to model deployment, currently Co-Head of Artificial Intelligence at Gradiant in Vigo. He blends research-driven thinking (master’s in AI research) with hands-on engineering across Spark, Flink, Kafka, Kubernetes and ML tooling like TensorFlow and MLflow to deliver interpretable, monitored models and robust data platforms. Diego moves fluidly between architecture, CI/CD for data, and operational responsibilities—advocating that data projects must be treated like software with testing, observability and clear business alignment. He is an active community organizer (Vigobrain, GDG roots) who mentors peers and shapes internal practices to improve delivery and quality. Known for curiosity-driven experimentation, he enjoys trying new technologies and turning exploratory work into repeatable, production-ready solutions. Based in Galicia, he combines academic rigor with pragmatic product focus to drive measurable impact for clients and teams.
