By R&D, do you mean the guy in charge of thinking up new ways for the robot to do things or the overall big boss of the Science Fortress?

The former, probably a colleague or student of Higini Somporn. As for the name of the robot why not Prometheus? It kinda fits with the organization's name and he uses a substance stolen from the monsters (Etherion) to fight for mankind's survival
