Santiago Raúl Díaz

Co-founder · Technical direction

Santiago is a co-founder of Possition and leads the technical side: he defines the architecture of each solution, which models are used, and how the system integrates with what the company already runs.

He has worked in artificial intelligence, data science, and cloud architecture since 2017. He holds a Master's in Applied Statistics from Universidad Nacional de Rosario, with a thesis awarded the highest grade, and a Bachelor's in Information Systems from UADER. Before Possition he built fraud detection models for US e-commerce and geospatial architectures on AWS for agriculture.

He is also a university lecturer at UADER's Faculty of Science and Technology, where he is Associate Professor in Integration Workshop and Teaching Assistant in the Artificial Intelligence course, and he has supervised four undergraduate theses on applied machine learning.
