Biography

Dr. Camilo Velázquez-Rodríguez is a Research Engineer at Flanders Make in Kortrijk, Belgium, where he works within Digital Productions in the Productions Core Lab. In this role, he leads and contributes to the design and deployment of data-driven solutions for industrial applications, spanning data engineering and analytics, software architecture and implementation, and cloud-based infrastructure and services.

He obtained his Ph.D. from the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB) in 2024 under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Coen De Roover. Following his doctoral studies, he held a postdoctoral position at the Software Languages Lab in the Department of Informatics at VUB, where he contributed to advanced research at the intersection of software engineering and machine learning.

His expertise lies in optimisation, machine learning and deep learning, and mathematical modelling, with a strong focus on translating advanced methods into robust, scalable solutions for complex industrial systems.
