Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRodney Lalonde is a machine learning researcher and Ph.D. graduate from UCF’s Center for Research in Computer Vision, currently applying explainable AI and computer vision expertise to high-risk domains at Palantir. With a decade of experience spanning industry and defense-focused research—including senior R&D leadership at Kitware and project work for DoD/AFRL/NGA—he blends deep technical innovation in medical imaging, object detection, and few-/zero-shot learning with practical systems delivery. He has a strong track record of internships and collaborations across autonomous driving (Aptiv), Lockheed Martin, and academic labs, and he routinely bridges research and operational requirements through proposals and customer-facing leadership. Comfortable both building novel algorithms and shepherding them toward real-world impact, Rodney also brings interdisciplinary roots from physics and high-performance computing that inform his pragmatic approach to complex ML problems.
