Carlos E. Torres
Building clinical AI at Oracle Health and researching how AI should interact with people.
I'm a Brazilian-American software engineer based in Florida. I lead technical architecture and development of the Clinical AI Agent at Oracle Health, a mobile multimodal assistant that moves between voice, text, and touch without losing context. Alongside that, I research LLMs, NLP, and Human-Centered AI as a Ph.D. candidate at UCCS.
Two decades of shipping software across three countries. From a BBS I ran as a kid and taking my undergrad studies in Brazil, to helping improving billing systems in Portugal, to opening my own company, to building mobile, AI powered, systems used by healthcare providers in hospitals in U.S. I've been a founder, a consultant, and an engineer inside multinationals, which tends to make me useful in the space between what a business wants and what a system can actually do.

CarrierBar - Putting My Thermostats in the Menu Bar
An open-source macOS menu bar app that shows the current temperature of each Carrier unit on your account. Clicking it opens a panel with details for each unit. CarrierBar reads Carrier's private cloud API, stays live over a websocket, and survives an API that never quite agrees with itself.
MyKeepass - Passwords in your macOS menu bar
MyKeepass opens your existing .kdbx file and keeps it a click away. Search as you type, copy a password, and get back to what you were doing. Free, no sync service, no account, no subscription. Open KDBX database files, quickly click to copy passwords, add new entry, edit, delete, create new database files, sort, group, and search entries.
ACSP4HR - SPDS
Secure and Privacy-Preserving Data Sharing for Data Science Computations. An NSF-funded cybersecurity research project presented at ISTSS 39th Annual Meeting. It is a secure and privacy-preserving data sharing system for data science computations toward the scientific community that actually does not share the data.

CarrierBar: Putting My Thermostats in the Menu Bar October 12, 2026 · 13 min readI wanted the temperature of my house next to the clock on my Mac, not inside an app on my phone. CarrierBar is a small, open source menu bar app that reads and changes my thermostats through Carrier's private cloud API, stays live over a websocket, and survives an API that never quite agrees with itself.
