Francisco Miguel Pérez Canales

I build AI systems that survive contact with reality: large-scale data, evolving ground truth, and the gap between a notebook that works once and a traceable platform that runs every day. End-to-end: research, infra, backend, and the frontend that puts it in front of users.

Ten years across applied ML and computational science, now continuing in my PhD at Universidad de Sevilla. I own the full research-to-production pipeline: framing the problem, modelling the data, training, evaluation, deployment, monitoring, authentication, the API + web + agent layers, and the React / Next.js UI on top.

Recent highlights

• PROTEA, a production-grade ML platform: protein language model inference at scale (ESM2, ESMC, ProstT5, Ankh), retrieval-augmented prediction over 500k+ embeddings (FAISS + pgvector halfvec), FastAPI + Next.js + RabbitMQ orchestration, Grafana / Loki / Prometheus observability, OAuth / LDAP auth, Dockerised CI/CD on GitHub Actions.
• agent-farm (OSS), a multi-agent orchestration framework: conductor session spawning 10+ specialised workers, MCP integration, per-agent permission scoping, SQLite state, token-cost-aware mixed-model dispatch.
• #19 of 2,186 teams in CAFA 6, Kaggle Gold Medal. International benchmark for automated protein function prediction. Per-aspect calibrated ensemble of four protein language models.
• Publications: co-author, Communications Biology 2025 (Nature portfolio); first author, Methods in Molecular Biology 2025 (Springer); co-author, "FANTASIA suite" submitted to NAR Genomics and Bioinformatics, May 2026.
