Summary
Justino Rodrigues is a software engineer with 8 years' experience who blends advanced academic training—a PhD and MEng in Bioengineering from Imperial College London—with practical expertise in computer vision, data science, and generative AI model engineering at MathWorks. His PhD work on glaucoma mechanobiology led to research and tool development that automates screening for novel therapeutics, demonstrating an ability to translate complex biomedical problems into deployable software. He has a track record of teaching and mentoring at Imperial, supporting coursework across programming, image processing and biomechanics, and has applied modelling skills to real-world policy advising during a strategic consulting stint for the Cayman Islands Government. Comfortable moving between research, support, and product-facing engineering roles, he brings domain depth in biomedical imaging alongside growing experience in generative AI systems engineering.
