About Me
Hi! I’m Felipe Cordero, a structural engineer and software developer with 14+ years in AEC. I combine my engineering background with modern tech to solve complex problems in construction and automation.
Currently in Montréal, I’m specializing in AI and Machine Learning at Collège LaSalle, working with Python, PyTorch, and predictive modeling to build intelligent systems.
What I'm passionate about
I’m passionate about applying AI to real-world engineering problems. At Fireraven, I’m helping develop their Low-code Security and Compliance SaaS platform for LLM Assistants and Agents. Previously at ObraLink, I led the development of autonomous structural analysis tools and ML models for concrete estimation.
With experience in both structural engineering and software development, I bring a unique perspective to technical challenges. I’ve led teams in building everything from physical structures to scalable software systems, always focusing on practical, efficient solutions.
Outside work, I enjoy tennis, cooking, drums, swimming, and photography. I also volunteer at LaSalle College, helping new students settle in.
