Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolFelipe González-pizarro is an NLP Data Scientist with 11 years of experience and dual MSc degrees, most recently completing a focused MS in Computer Science at UBC specializing in NLP and multimodal machine learning. He builds and evaluates textual and multimodal topic modeling algorithms and has applied large vision-language models to detect harmful content, producing datasets and peer-reviewed publications from institutions like Max Planck. Felipe has moved research into practice—implementing hallucination detection, prompt engineering and LLM fine-tuning in industry roles—and currently contributes NLP expertise at Ontopical after a stint at Rashi. He also has a strong human-centered angle from his HCI and info-vis work (e.g., TopicVisExplorer) and years of teaching experience across machine learning, NLP and algorithms. Comfortable straddling research and productization, he brings a track record of releasing resources (a 92K-image dataset) that accelerate safer multimodal content analysis.
