Summary
Hernán Madrigal is a Cryptography Research Engineer with a decade of experience at the intersection of cryptography, algorithms, and machine learning, currently applying his expertise at HashCloak. With an MSc in Applied Mathematics and dual undergraduate training in Mathematics and Computer Engineering, he blends rigorous proofs and practical implementation—having developed secure printed-document authentication algorithms at ETH Zürich. His research focus on secure multi-party computation and privacy-preserving ML is complemented by strong skills in algorithm and data-structure design and in automating educational tooling. Comfortable moving from theoretical security proofs to testing and improving real systems, he brings a practitioner’s eye to mathematical problems, often optimizing for both accuracy and efficiency. Based in Colombia, he has a track record of teaching and mentoring students in data structures, algorithms, and discrete math, which informs his clear, systematic approach to complex cryptographic engineering.
