Mechatronics Engineer from UTEC, specialized in robotics with an honors thesis in microrobotics. Six years volunteering at Yachay Wasi, closing education gaps across Peru.
I like connecting the model with the latency, the end user, and the production system.
At YaVendio -- I lead the evolution of Yago, a production LLM-based agent serving 400+ merchants across LatAm. My work spans the full stack: from LangGraph agent architecture and hallucination detection middleware, to frontend features in the merchant dashboard, database migrations, and infrastructure moves from GCP to AWS.
In the lab -- I research AI-driven control of millimeter-scale magnetic microrobots at UTEC. My IEEE URUCON 2024 paper covers locomotion of rolling microrobots (sphere, cube, cylinder) under proportional closed-loop control in channels simulating human arteries. Currently building uRobotTracker, a web platform for annotating microscopy videos and training YOLO11 detectors, and uRobotLive, a real-time detection system bridged to LabVIEW for closed-loop Helmholtz coil control.
