Hi πŸ‘‹, I'm Miguel Figarola

Robotics & Digital Systems Engineer | AI | Smart Agriculture | Data Systems


πŸš€ About Me

I’m a MSc in Mechanical Engineering (engineering managemtn) fomr UofA with a BSc in Robotics and Digital Systems Engineerin currently working as an Tech Lead @ Qualtop.

My work sits at the intersection of:

  • πŸ€– Artificial Intelligence (LLMs, Computer Vision, Data-driven systems)
  • 🌱 Smart Agriculture (Vertical Farming, IoT, Digital Twins)
  • πŸ“Š Data Platforms & Decision Systems (QOPA, Firebase, Looker, BigQuery)

I enjoy building end-to-end intelligent systems, from hardware and sensors to AI models and user-facing dashboards.


πŸ”¬ Current Focus

  • 🧠 AI Agents, LLM integration, and data indexing (RAG systems)
  • 🌿 Vertical Farming & Controlled Environment Agriculture (CEA)
  • πŸ”— IoT + Cloud architectures (ESP32, Firebase, real-time monitoring)
  • πŸ“ˆ Data analytics & intelligent dashboards for decision-making
