Hey, I'm José Manuel 👋

Co-founder @ Hesperia Labs · AI Engineer · AI & Data Science Instructor

About Me

I'm the co-founder of Hesperia Labs — a local-first AI consultancy: we design and deploy private AI systems on your own infrastructure, for organizations that can't send sensitive data to the cloud. I also teach LLMs, RAG, AI agents and Computer Vision as an AI & Data Science Instructor at Upgrade Hub — all backed by 8+ years of enterprise software engineering.

What sets me apart: applied AI skills + solid software engineering fundamentals + production mindset.

  • 🌾 Creator of Reed — a local-first RAG service with hybrid retrieval, evidence-aware refusal, audited citations and a reproducible evaluation suite
  • 🔒 I build local-first, privacy-first software — my cybersecurity background shapes how I ship AI: self-hosted, hardened, claims verified in CI
  • 🎓 Master's in Artificial Intelligence (UNIR) · Master's in Cybersecurity (UNIR)
  • ☁️ Enterprise delivery at scale — ServiceNow ITSM for Generali, COFCO, Sanofi and Acciona
  • 🌐 Full-stack experience: TypeScript, Next.js, Flutter/Dart, Rust, Java

🤝 Need private AI on your own infrastructure? Hesperia Labs takes on consulting engagements — architecture, pilots and production rollout.


Featured Projects

Everything below shares one thesis: your data stays on your own hardware. Local-first services, hardened by default, with their claims verified in CI.

🌾 The Reed ecosystem — document Q&A that never leaves your machine

Built in the open as the technical portfolio of Hesperia Labs.

  • Reed — the engine. A local-first RAG service built from scratch: hybrid retrieval (dense + BM25 fused in Qdrant), evidence-aware refusal, audited citations, and a reproducible evaluation suite with a 41-question golden set.
    Python · FastAPI · LangChain · Qdrant · Ollama
  • private-ai-stack — the deployment. General chat plus document RAG in one docker compose up: images pinned by digest, hardened containers, zero telemetry, backup/restore and browser E2E verified in CI, GPU and air-gap profiles.
    Docker Compose · Ollama · Qdrant · Open WebUI · Reed
  • reed-mcp — the bridge. Four read-only MCP tools that let Claude — or any MCP host — answer from your private documents with cited evidence.
    Python · MCP

🔒 Self-hosted products

  • DocDrop — file sharing with expiring links: chunked resumable uploads for multi-GB files, previews, streamed ZIP downloads, installable PWA.
    Next.js · TypeScript
  • TabUp — shared expense tracking for trips: multi-currency, uneven splits, settle-up payments, CSV export — and receipt OCR through a local vision model.
    Next.js · TypeScript · SQLite
