Hola!  I'm Gonzalo

Originally from Chile 🇨🇱, I'm currently working at Palantir Technologies, where I build AI software for healthcare and retail. I'm currently living in Chile, engaging with new partners and expanding our work.

I love using data, software, and AI to tackle societal challenges. Before Palantir, I've worked on education and healthcare projects in both the private and public sectors.

In 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic, I advised Chile's Minister of Health. Working with an exceptional team of academics, public servants, and scientists, we developed software and conducted research to track the virus's spread, predict hospital admissions, and assess vaccine effectiveness. Our work informed critical government decisions, leading to timely interventions such as confinement measures and patient reallocations.

Since 2021, I've collaborated with Professor Dan Levy at Harvard University to develop software that enhance teaching and learning by leveraging NLP capabilities. Our tools have been adopted by various professors, positively impacting over 3,000 Harvard students.

I earned my Engineering degree with a major in Computer Science from Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile in 2016 and a Master's in Public Administration from Harvard University in 2022, where I was honored to be a Gleitsman Fellow.
