Senior🎓
Top SchoolEsteban Hernández is a PhD-qualified HPC and data systems leader with a strong track record building regional research ecosystems and production-grade distributed platforms. As Co-Founder and Head of Scientific and Research Cooperation at Cybercolombia, he forges academia-industry partnerships, secures funding, and drives large-scale HPC, AI and emerging-technology projects across Latin America. He pairs 20+ years of deep technical experience in availability, performance and capacity planning with hands-on expertise tuning MPI/CUDA workloads, cloud HPC on AWS, and modern in-memory data transport (Apache Arrow, Ray, Dask, Spark). Previously he led Big Data and ML efforts at AWS, Mercado Libre and PSL, architecting high-throughput streaming and sub-millisecond distributed systems. Based in Bogotá, he uniquely blends academic research, operational leadership and rapid prototyping to move simulation and scientific experimentation from idea to reproducible infrastructure. Colleagues note his ability to translate low-level performance insights into strategic, fundable research programs—making him as comfortable in proposal rooms as on the cluster.
