I’m looking for a role where I can combine control systems, automation, and data science to deliver high-impact R&D. I want to work on challenging aerospace/energy problems using simulation, control systems, optimization, and ML—while contributing to a team that values rigor and experimentation.
CESAR HERNANDEZ
@cesarhernandez
Ph.D.-trained control systems and data scientist driving AI and automation for aerospace and renewable energy.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Ph.D. in Informatics and a control systems and automation engineer who also works as a data scientist, bringing 13+ years of experience to projects across aerospace, renewable energy, Industry 4.0, image processing, horticulture, and wind turbine/GNC contexts. I’m motivated by turning complex real-world constraints into measurable performance through data-driven decision-making and robust control.
In recent roles, I’ve led applied R&D in control systems for aerospace and renewable energy and worked as a senior data scientist applying machine learning research to practical industrial problems. My work blends numerical simulation, system identification, and optimization (including MPC, Kalman filtering, and advanced solvers) with modern ML toolchains—so I can deliver solutions that are both scientifically grounded and operationally useful.
