José Colina is a Head of Engineering based in Paris with over a decade of experience building and scaling data and AI teams in financial services and industrial IoT. He has led multidisciplinary teams up to 17 engineers, delivering cloud-native, event-driven architectures and production ML systems that generated seven-figure revenue and six-figure annual cost savings. At RiverBank he launched a cross-border financing product in eight weeks and built RAG-based generative systems and NLP pipelines for credit assessment and risk monitoring. His background spans end-to-end ML lifecycle work—from model development and MLOps to platform administration and knowledge-graph engineering—grounded in strong academic training in signal processing and data exploitation.
