Hi, I'm Daniel Gaspar Figueiredo. A PhD specialized in taking Autonomous AI Systems from research papers to production. I design scalable architectures where Reinforcement Learning agents learn and adapt in real-time. I am obsessed with computational efficiency, robotics, and building robust technical solutions for complex problems (always fueled by good coffee).

Experience
PhD in Computer Science
Almost completed a PhD in Computer Science focused on applying Reinforcement Learning (RL) to Adaptive User Interfaces (AUIs). The research explored how RL techniques can be used to make user interfaces intelligent and adaptive, optimizing interaction strategies to improve user experience (UX). The work combined artificial intelligence, human–computer interaction, and experimental evaluation to design data-driven, adaptive systems.
