Consultoría y Asesoramiento Estratégico
¿Cansado de escuchar sobre IA sin respuestas claras?
Todos los productos prometen "inteligencia", "automatización" y "revolución", pero nadie te dice qué construir, qué NO construir, o cuánto riesgo estás asumiendo realmente.
¿Tienes dudas sobre:
- ¿Invertir miles de dólares en un proyecto de IA que tal vez no sobreviva al ciclo de hype?
- ¿Elegir entre LLMs, agentes, automatización, robótica o herramientas "impulsadas por IA" que suenan todas igual?
- ¿Si la IA realmente mejorará tu operación o solo añadirá complejidad y costos?
Ayudo a las empresas a ver más allá del ruido.
Como actuario, Maestro de IA aplicada y desarrollador de robótica, asesoro a equipos y tomadores de decisiones sobre qué vale la pena construir, cómo hacerlo de forma segura y cómo alinearlo con valor de negocio real, evitando demos que se ven bien pero fallan en producción.
Lo Que Ofrezco
- 🔹 Asesoría en IA y Automatización: Evaluación estratégica de dónde la IA aporta valor genuino y dónde no.
- 🔹 Due Diligence Técnico: Evaluación independiente de proveedores, herramientas y arquitecturas de IA para evitar soluciones sobreprometidas.
- 🔹 Alcance de Proyecto y Control de Riesgos: Definición clara de alcance, costos, tiempos y puntos de fallo antes de una inversión mayor.
- 🔹 Consultoría de Producto IA y Robótica: Desde sistemas basados en LLMs hasta IA corporizada y demostraciones robóticas para casos de uso reales.
- 🔹 Traducción a Nivel Ejecutivo: Convertir la complejidad técnica en decisiones claras y accionables para equipos de liderazgo.
"No vendo plataformas. No empujo tendencias. Diseño y valido sistemas de IA que sobreviven al hype y entregan impacto medible."

Professional Experience
AI & Robotics Tech Lead | Robotics GALU (Official Unitree Distributor)
Led the software and artificial intelligence division deploying intelligent systems across autonomous quadruped and humanoid robots, architecting on-robot AI initiatives and coordinating with mechatronics teams across 3 product lines:
- Autonomous Patrol & Edge Perception (GALU GUARD): Architected an edge-cloud visual intelligence system on NVIDIA Jetson (<40ms latency) and co-designed the autonomous patrol navigation framework with mechatronics engineers; automated multi-platform CI/CD pipelines that reduced on-robot update cycles by 60%. [Tech: NVIDIA Jetson, TensorRT, PyTorch, Unitree SDK, ROS, CycloneDDS, Docker, GCP, GitHub Actions]
- Physical Agentic AI & Voice Interaction (GALU CHAT): Engineered an end-to-end cognitive platform giving quadruped and humanoid robots voice, reasoning, and physical actuation; integrated LangGraph multi-agent workflows with low-latency RAG speech-to-speech pipelines and real-time ROS choreography for high-profile activations, including TUDN’s "Chatito" (World Cup) and the Mexico City Zócalo Fan Fest. [Tech: LangGraph, Google GenAI SDK, ChromaDB, Semantic Caching, VAD, ROS]
- Physics Simulation & RL Training (GALU SIM): Built high-fidelity physics environments in MuJoCo and NVIDIA Isaac Lab to train locomotion/navigation policies for sim-to-real transfer; developed an interactive Three.js 3D web tool for remote kinematic calibration that cut hardware test cycles by 50% and accelerated motion design by 3x. [Tech: NVIDIA Isaac Lab / Sim, MuJoCo, PyTorch (PPO), Three.js, WebGL]
- Strategic Partnerships, Client Training & Industry Expos: Served as technical liaison for Unitree (China) as official distributor and engineering contact for Solomon (Taiwan); trained enterprise clients nationwide on on-robot AI operations and delivered live technical demonstrations at premier expos (Expo Seguridad México, ITM, and Expo ANTAD).
