Portrait of Fernando Calle, civil engineer and founder of ONTOS
Fernando Calle · Segovia

I am a civil engineer, and my work is putting information in order with code and artificial intelligence. I come from the projects where you learn that the hard way: six years leading models, data and automation on major international works, where the order of the information sets the deadlines and the costs.

Today I work on two fronts that feed each other. I build ONTOS, a personal and business digital twin that an AI keeps up to date, and I do information engineering on demand: automation, data and BIM.

Where I come from

I spent the six years before ONTOS on projects where the volume of information outgrows any one person, and the only way through is building systems that keep it in order on their own.

  • Sydney Metro West (Australia)Modelling and automation on the Sydney metro works, with 41 cross passages delivered through code-generated models.
  • HS2 (United Kingdom)Models, data and information coordination on the new British high-speed line.
  • Northern Water (Adelaide, Australia)Water infrastructure of 140 ML per day, with data as the backbone of the project.
  • Red Sea Governorates Urban Development Plan (Saudi Arabia)Urban development plan for the Red Sea governorates, with GIS training for the team in Riyadh.
  • NEOM (Saudi Arabia)Automation and information management on one of the largest infrastructure developments in the world.
