Senior🎓
Top SchoolRangel Walles is an electromechanical engineer turned AI practitioner with 12+ years delivering embedded systems, robotics, and production ML solutions across industry and academia from Panama. He blends low-level firmware and FPGA experience (HC908, ARM, Altera/NIOS, Zynq) with modern AI stacks—ROS, OpenCV, PyTorch, transformers—and has shipped ML workflows on AWS SageMaker and EC2. At Grupo LAFISE he cut a resume-analysis pipeline from hours to minutes using LLMs, RAG and multithreading, and routinely operationalizes models with Quicksight monitoring and MLOps practices. His career spans SCADA and IIoT productization to autonomous navigation and embodied AI research, reflecting a rare full-stack robotics-to-cloud perspective. A pragmatic educator and product lead, he pairs hands-on hardware design and PCB/RTOS know-how with recent MSc work in digital electronics and automation.
