He was born in Chillán to Miguel Antonio Rodríguez Fernández and Ana Luisa Mazer.[1] He studied at the Colegio San Pedro Nolasco and the Liceo de Hombres de Chillán, later enrolling at the University of Chile School of Law, where he earned his law degree in 1952 with the thesis Las huelgas y los conflictos colectivos del trabajo.[1]
He married Inés Goyenechea Zegarra in Antofagasta in 1940.[1]

Rodríguez served as inspector of the Internado Nacional Barros Arana (1921–1924), an official of the Ministry of Education (1929–1937), and local head of the Antofagasta gold washing operations (1940–1941).[1]
He held various positions in the judiciary, beginning as secretary of the Conchalí Court (1945–1949). After receiving his law degree, he became secretary and then notary of Putaendo (1954), and later Notary and Registrar of Real Estate in Los Andes (1957–1961).[1]
