Education and training
Jaramillo-Botero earned a B.S. in electrical engineering from Boston University in 1986, an M.Sc. in computer science from the State University of New York as a Fulbright scholar in 1989, under the supervision of Kanad Ghose and Peter Kogge, and a Doctorate degree in engineering from the Polytechnic University of Valencia (UPV) in 1998 (Valencia, Spain), under the supervision of Alfons Crespo (at UPV) and co-supervision of William A. Goddard III (at Caltech). His doctoral work, developed while at the California Institute of Technology and NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, during 1996–1997, contributed time-lower bound solution and algorithms to the n-body dynamics problem and their application at multiple length scales, from molecular{{cite journal|last1=Jaramillo-Botero|first1=Andres|title=Molecular Mechanics and Molecular Dynamics Analysis of Drexler-Merkle Gears and Neon Pump|journal=Nanotechnology|date=January 6, 1998|volume= 9|issue=3|pages=143–152|doi=10.1088/0957-4484/9/3/002|bibcode=1998Nanot...9..143C|citeseerx=10.1.1.34.5553|s2cid=250921944 }} to macroscopic systems.{{cite web|title=LAMMPS|url=http://lammps.sandia.gov|website=lammps.sandia.gov|publisher=Sandia National Laboratory|access-date=October 27, 2016}}
Career
Jaramillo-Botero began his academic career as an assistant professor in engineering and applied sciences at the Pontifical Xavierian University in 1990, where he reached full professorship by 1999. Since his early days at this institution, he served in various positions such as Member of the university’s board of directors, Engineering Faculty Dean, founding Director of the Doctoral program in Engineering and Applied Sciences, founding Director of the electronics engineering undergraduate program, and Director of the computer science undergraduate program. In 2001, Jaramillo-Botero was received into the Xavierian honor society for his contributions to science and academia in Colombia.{{cite web|title=ETHOS Pontificia Universidad Javeriana|date=2 March 2017|url= https://www.javeriana.edu.co/ethos/pontificia-universidad-javeriana-seccional-cali/|publisher=Pontificia Universidad Javeriana|access-date=April 16, 2024}}
He joined the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) full-time in 2006, and relocated to the US as an Alien of extraordinary ability recipient (EB-1A category). At Caltech, he holds key positions as a Scientist-Lecturer in the Chemistry and Chemical Engineering division, and as the Director of Nanotechnology and Multiscale Science{{cite web |url= http://www.wag.caltech.edu/multiscale|title= Multiscale Science and Simulation, Materials and Process Simulation Center, Caltech|access-date=2016-10-01}} in the Materials and Process Simulation Center.{{cite web |url= http://www.wag.caltech.edu|title= Materials and Process Simulation Center, Caltech|access-date=2016-10-01}}.

Research Work
Jaramillo-Botero developed an early interest for multibody dynamics control as a research scholar in Advanced Industrial Applications at the Robotics and Autonomous Machinery division of the Mechanical Engineering Laboratory (1992-1993, National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology or AIST), where he focused on dynamic real-time visual control of robotic systems. He transitioned from macroscopic to nanoscale multibody dynamics control and modeling during his research appointment with NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory and Caltech (1996-1997). He continued to develop fundamental frameworks for designing atomic-scale manipulators with optimized dynamic response during postdoctoral appointments (2002 -2005), as a National Science Foundation (NSF) Fellow in the Nanoscale Science and Engineering program,{{cite web|title=IPAM 2002 Nanoscale Science and Engineering Program| date=13 May 2014 |url=http://www.ipam.ucla.edu/programs/long-programs/mathematics-in-nanoscale-science-and-engineering/?tab=participant-list|publisher=Institute of Pure and Applied Mathematics|access-date=October 27, 2016}} at UCLA’s Institute for Pure and Applied Mathematics (IPAM), and, as an NSF Fellow in Computational Nanotechnology and Molecular Engineering, at Caltech.{{cite web|title=Pan American Advanced Studies Institute in Computational Nanotechnology and Molecular Engineering|url=https://www.nsf.gov/awardsearch/showAward?AWD_ID=0322465|publisher=National Science Foundation|access-date=October 27, 2016}}{{cite journal|last1= Schwarz|first1=James|first2=Christian|last2=Contescu|last3=Putyera|first3=Karol|title=Molecular Manipulator Dynamics Design Criteria|journal=Dekker Encyclopedia of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology|date=June 15, 2014|pages=2692–2702|doi=10.1081/E-ENN3-120024165|isbn=978-1-4398-9134-6}}
