Portrait of Victor Camargo

My work centers on AI/ML engineering, applied data science, and practical software engineering. I studied physics at the University of The Andes, completed a master's in Complex Systems Modeling, and earned a PhD in Physics Applied to Medicine and Biology at the University of Sao Paulo. My applied industry work overlapped doctoral research, rather than beginning only after it.

At Carta Healthcare, I built ETL and NLP pipelines for clinical data and applied LLM-assisted extraction to registry workflows. The public case study describes responsibilities and workflow boundaries; it does not establish standards conformance or clinical outcomes.

At TripleTen, my work included data-science project review, technical mentorship, live sessions, and debugging support. Clear feedback and communication helped make modeling choices and evaluation assumptions discussable.

I am especially interested in work that sits between research depth and practical execution: machine learning systems, applied AI workflows, and technical communication that makes complex ideas genuinely usable.

I also founded Camargo IT Solutions.

Approach

How I work

  • Define the problem carefully before reaching for models, prompts, or tooling.
  • Keep pipelines reproducible so results can be trusted, debugged, and improved.
  • Evaluate claims honestly instead of optimizing for the appearance of capability.
  • Make systems understandable enough to trust, especially when the stakes are high.
Workspace

A quiet place to build.
