Security Research Engineer at Intel Labs
Heredia Province, Costa Rica
Summary
🎓
Top SchoolJose Rojas is a security research engineer at Intel Labs with a multidisciplinary 12-year background bridging hardware design, low-level system software, and applied AI for robotics. He has led optimization efforts for homomorphic encryption on Xeon with AVX-512, earning a Distinguished Invention Award, and recently contributed to a CVPR 2024 project through Intel Labs' Visual Algorithms Research Group. Comfortable moving between EDA, Simics-based hardware simulation, Windows QAT improvements, and AI model integrations with OpenVINO and cloud IoT, he excels at squeezing performance from complex platforms. Based in Costa Rica, he blends academic collaboration—having represented Intel at the University of Costa Rica and conducted robot-learning research in Bremen—with hands-on engineering that turns research prototypes into production-grade tooling.
