Agentic & Software Architect · AgentEval creator · Microsoft AI MVP
José Luis Latorre is a Microsoft AI MVP, LinkedIn Learning Trainer, and Agentic & Software Architect at Swiss Life, where he leads the Developer Community, helps shape the AI strategy—while also building agentic applications that have to work on Mondays, not just in demos.
Since 2023, he’s been contributing to Microsoft’s agentic AI frameworks (as in: building it, not just using it): Semantic Kernel, AutoGen, and now Microsoft Agent Framework (MAF)—where he’s Contributor #29. Nights and weekends, alongside the day job. Because apparently he enjoys pain… and shipping PRs.
He has released 4 courses and is working on the next one (Agent Framework), teaching up to 60,000 learners.
Frustrated by unreliable agents in the real world, he built AgentEval—the .NET evaluation toolkit that brings validation discipline to agents and agentic workflows (think: what RAGAS / DeepEval are for Python, AgentEval is for .NET).
On stage, expect real engineering lessons, practical patterns, and live demos—helping teams build agents that are not just impressive, but measurably better.
Tagline: “I don’t just build agents. I help build the frameworks… and then I measure whether they behave.”
