Adolfo Viguera

Founding AI Engineer at Opereit. I build trustworthy AI for domains where an error has real consequences.

~/about
readme.md

Chess player and musician since I was six. At eighteen I traded a career composing for TV for biomedical engineering.

I chose to chase what excited me most: building technology in complex environments. Clinical AI for children's transplants across four European hospitals, with Georgia Tech. Anomaly detection on real ESA spacecraft telemetry. Three AI products I took from zero to real users on my own. And now, as founding AI engineer at Opereit, autonomous and traceable AI for logistics.

moreless
  • First engineer in my family and in my group of 16 friends.
  • I took three AI products from zero to production, mostly on my own: JaviLife, Devon and Manipulens.
  • At UPM I designed the clinical NLP and federated learning layer of PROTECT-CHILD, an €8.09M Horizon Europe project, and I write algorithms from the math up when no library implements them.
  • Now: Founding AI Engineer at Opereit (Barcelona). Autonomous, secure and traceable AI systems for logistics: vision, ML and LLMs, plus evaluations that make them auditable and robust.
  • Before: nearly two years as an AI Engineer at UPM inside a Horizon Europe consortium with Georgia Tech, and work alongside doctors at La Paz and Ramón y Cajal hospitals.
  • Where I'm heading: AI for hard, important problems (health, defense, space, energy). No chatbots. No dashboards. Systems where the output really matters.
  • Education: Biomedical Engineering (UPM), MEng in Innovation in Biomedical Technologies (UPM), MSc in Big Data, Data Science & AI (UCM, with Distinction).

S.H.E.R.P.A

A casualty evacuation command screen for the front line, where drones have taken away the golden hour. It runs offline on a single laptop.

Fuses drone detections and soldier triage reports into one graph and recommends a TCCC triage category; the medic decides in one click
Re-plans every affected evacuation route in the same minute a drone closes a road, fully offline on one laptop
Built at the European Defense Tech Hackathon in London; I built the Replay (a 251-minute run in 0.8 s) and pitched it
