Rodrigo Norabuena

Economist focused on applied quantitative analysis.
I use data and statistical methods to answer economic and social questions — and build the infrastructure the answer depends on.


About me

I'm an economist from PUCP based in Lima, Perú. I'm driven by one question: what explains this pattern, and what does the evidence say? I care about the whole path from question to decision: framing the problem, choosing a defensible method, building a reproducible pipeline, and communicating the result so it supports a decision.

What I do

At CENTRUM PUCP I work in research analytics, where I turn bibliometric data from multiple sources into the indicators used for research intelligence and international accreditation (AACSB, EQUIS). I designed the relational database behind them, automated the ETL in Python (a 3-day update cycle now runs in 5 minutes), and documented the system so anyone can reproduce it. That experience also sparked my interest in higher education as a field to study.

Before that, I led the marketing area of Revista Económica PUCP, using data analysis and dashboards to guide editorial decisions.

What I'm looking for

Roles where the job is answering the question, not just preparing the data: applied research, economic consulting, impact evaluation, public policy and regulation, risk, market research, and applied data science.

What I'm working on

  • 📚 Q-LAB PUCP Diplomatura Ciencia de Datos para las Ciencias Sociales y la Gestión Pública in quantitative methods (2026–2027), after completing two Winter School cohorts (2025, 2026).
  • 🧠 GCI World 2026 (in progress).
  • ✍️ A research article on labor informality in Peru (in progress).
  • 🎓 Longer term: postgraduate studies in development economics.
