Rodrigo Gonzalez is an AI Engineer and Ph.D. in Robotics based in Mendoza, Argentina, with over a decade of industry experience and a 20+ year IT background bridging research and production. He designs and deploys generative AI and LLM systems for real-world problems—from healthcare claims fraud explainability to industrial vision defect detection—while teaching AI and control systems at two universities. His research and hands-on work span deep learning for visual odometry, bias compensation for low-cost IMUs, time series forecasting, and FPGA/Kalman-filter navigation, reflected in open-source contributions like enhancements to an INS toolbox for inertial sensor analysis. Comfortable moving between embedded firmware, Python/R pipelines, and cloud services, he excels at turning academic methods into operational systems that reduce risk and add explainability. Colleagues value him for combining rigorous academic depth with practical delivery across cross-functional teams and international collaborations.
