Gustavo Hurovich is a PhD candidate at Rotterdam School of Management who blends advanced mathematics and computer science to tackle real-time decision-making in attended home delivery, specializing in time slot management. With 11 years of experience, he pairs academic rigor—from an M.Sc. in Applied Mathematics at UBA and teaching roles—to hands-on software engineering across startups and tech giants. His internships at Microsoft and Google and work on MakeCode’s debugger reflect a strong front-end and tooling pedigree, having improved developer UX in a widely used educational coding platform. Comfortable spanning research, full-stack development, and teaching, he excels at turning theoretical models into practical, production-ready systems. Based in Argentina, he brings a rare combination of operational research methods and production debugging experience that speeds the path from algorithm to impact.
