News
Research presented at ISMRM 2025 on conditional deep generative modeling for fetal brain anomaly detection.
Joined Laboratorios Bagó del Perú to lead production GenAI systems for pharmaceutical operations and physician workflows.
Presented fetal MRI anomaly-detection work at OHBM 2024 and MIT-MGB AI Cures.
Graduated with a B.S. in Biomedical Engineering from Tecnológico de Monterrey with a 92.4/100 GPA.
About
I'm Carlos Simón Amador Izaguirre, most people call me Simón. I'm a Peruvian biomedical engineer building AI systems that move the needle in healthcare, with a focus on LLM products, medical computer vision, and deployable clinical decision-support tools.
I studied at Tecnológico de Monterrey and spent six months at the Fetal Neonatal Neuroimaging and Developmental Science Center (FNNDSC) from Boston Children's Hospital and Harvard Medical School, where I co-authored research on deep generative models for fetal brain anomaly detection.
Currently, I lead a team of three at Laboratorios Bagó del Perú, shipping GenAI products used by 120+ medical representatives and developing clinical tools targeting thousands of physicians. I work across the full stack: LLM orchestration, RAG pipelines, Dockerized services, Oracle SQL, A/B testing frameworks, analytics, and cross-functional change management.
I am open to opportunities in graduate study, research collaborations, and remote roles where rigorous AI engineering connects with real healthcare impact.
