Summary
Jesus Romero is a founder and hands-on product leader with 12 years of engineering and software experience who built MANUFAI, the first AI-powered welding optimization plugin, out of a PhD research focus on welding deformation. He bridges manufacturing domain expertise from John Deere with full-stack development skills (.NET, JavaScript, React) and a passion for clean architecture and cloud-native apps. Jesus combines rigorous academic research—work at Osaka University and a doctorate in mechatronics—with practical production know-how in welding fixtures, quality systems, and production launch. He leads and motivates multidisciplinary teams, mentoring students while iterating product and go-to-market strategy for scaleup growth. Comfortable in both lab and code, he is as likely to prototype a simulation optimization algorithm as to ship the cloud service that runs it.
