Hello there, I’m José! 😁

I’m an Expert Machine Learning Engineer at Walmart, passionate about leveraging AI for real-world impact. I hold an MSc. in Computer Science, graduated from Universidad de Chile, and specialize in Language Models.

I pioneered BETO, the first BERT-like model for Spanish, and introduced ALBETO, a suite of light and fast models based in ALBERT for Spanish.

Formerly a founding member of the ReLeLa research group at DCC UChile, I’ve passionately explored Artificial Intelligence and optimizing systems for real-world applications.

Outside of work, music and podcasts are my go-to sources for relaxation and learning.

Feel free to reach out – you’ll find my contact details in the adjacent bio.
