Carlos de la Cruz — software engineer.

I build software, mostly around AI and machine learning. Right now I'm shipping an inverse-reinforcement-learning model that predicts polymer blends at TI Automotive — it lives in production with lab technicians.

Before that, I worked on a career-exploration tool for millions of students at Xello, led engineering at Centennial's OER Lab, and built ML-powered vector search at Exactera. I'm Dominican, based in Toronto, and open to roles.
