Esteban is an engineer dedicated to advancing the way we deal with complex systems. He has a multidisciplinary background and diverse experience in a variety of industries, roles, and countries. He has academic degrees in civil mining engineering and finance and systems engineering and was a visiting researcher in Japan studying multidisciplinary optimization systems. While at MIT, he was the founder of the student organization now called the Sustainable Energy Alliance. He focused his research on multidisciplinary system optimization, system safety, flexibility in engineering design, systems architecture, and innovation, and wrote his masters thesis on the implications of uncertainty on the dynamic behavior of complex systems. Esteban has started and directed two magazines focused on education in Chile. As an engineer, he has held diverse roles in environment and sustainability, process safety, field engineering, advanced analytics and data science, and systems engineering. All of these roles in multiple industries were related to natural resources and energy. During his career, he has been part of multiple industrial trends like Lean manufacturing, where he was a Black Belt, and classic and recent project management approaches like Agile, and he has led multiple data science and digital initiatives at a global scale, which has given him a first-hand view of the state of the art and the challenges of dealing with complexity. While at Chevron, he started the Systems Engineering Community of Practice, has filed multiple inventions and patents, and as the Advanced Analytics Team Lead at the time, was part of the team receiving the 2015 prize for excellence in analytics and operations research from the Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences (INFORMS®). His current role in Chevron Technology Ventures has given him a front-row perspective into innovation in digital technologies and the opportunity to work with multiple governmental agencies, universities, national labs, research institutions, and large- and small-scale technology companies across the globe. Esteban lives in Houston, Texas, where he spends as much time as possible with his family, composed of a curious and active daughter and a surgeon partner who inspires him with her wisdom about the world of the complex human body. He is a fourth dan black belt in martial arts, practicing for more than thirty years, and he supports the Houston Symphony as a member of the Young Associates Council. Esteban likes to read and to visit art galleries and museums wherever he goes.
