Ismael Sanchez-Martinez

I received my PhD from the University of Montreal in Computer Science and Operations Research in early 2024, focusing my thesis on Scalable Fog Design for Secure and Latency-Sensitive IoT Systems. My previous endeavors include a BSc in Mathematics and Computer Science from Simon Fraser University, a MSC program that Fast-Tracked into my current program, and work in Data Science, Data Engineering, Data Virtualization, and Blockchain.

After graduation, I will begin a Post-Doc in Paris, France. In the future, I intend to pursue a career or a startup in IoT and Fog Design, Deployment and Management.

I have a large background in Data Engineering and Data Analysis. I've done a co-op with COE, UBC as a Technical Analyst which was heavily based in SQL, as well as a co-op with Samsung Electronics as a QA Engineer which was focused on Data Migration testing. My most recent full-time job was as a Data Scientist, which was rooted in SQL and Python.

In 2016, I was invited to present at the Canadian Operations Research Society Conference as part of the Undergraduate Student Paper competition, and was awarded 2nd place for my presentation entitled "Queueing Network Model for Refugee Language Courses".
