Semblance
Dr. Jonathan Montalvo has studies and extensive experience in projects applying computing and models to industrial processes. He has worked for institutions and companies such as the Fraunhofer Institute for Industrial and Financial Mathematics (Kaiserslautern, Germany, 2001-2002), the Technical Development Center of Freudenberg/Vileda (Weinheim, Germany, 2003-2004), ZeTeM at the Faculty of Computer Science and Mathematics (Bremen, Germany, 2004-2013), and the Center for Research in Mathematics (CIMAT, Monterrey, Mexico, 2014-2018), where he collaborated on launching and executing multiple industrial improvement projects in areas such as computer vision, artificial intelligence, optimization, materials science, lean manufacturing, and more. In 2018, he began his entrepreneurship focused on Industrial Process Computing and Modeling with the company MOCTECH.
In his academic activities, he was the Academic Coordinator of the Faculty of Physical-Mathematical Sciences at the Universidad Autónoma de Coahuila for one year. At the University of Bremen, he taught between 2008 and 2013, obtaining permission to offer courses independently. Between 2014 and 2018, he was a Professor at CIMAT, where he contributed to the design of the curriculum and the launch of the Master's in Statistical Computing.
Since 2020, he has been a Professor-Researcher at the School of Engineering and Sciences at Tecnológico de Monterrey, teaching graduate courses and courses for engineering degrees. His regular activities include advising graduate students from various engineering programs, research stays for students in computer science, physics, industrial engineering, and data science. He teaches regularly in both Spanish and English, and together with his students, has received several awards at ExpoIngenierías events at Tecnológico de Monterrey.
He has been a keynote speaker by invitation at various events in Mexico, including a plenary talk at the National Congress of the Mexican Mathematical Society and the annual meeting of the Mexican chapter of SIAM, as well as at academic events in Colombia, Cuba, Greece, and Germany. He is currently an active member of the National System of Researchers (SNI) of CONACYT, which he joined in 2009.
