About me

I am a Senior Quantum Software Engineer at the Munich Quantum Software Company (MQSC) and a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Chair for Design Automation (CDA) at the Technical University of Munich (TUM). My research interests include design automation for computational nanotechnologies, quantum computing, logic synthesis, physical design, algorithmics, and formal methods.

I work towards closing the design gap between Field-coupled Nanocomputing (FCN) circuits and classical CMOS technologies. As a promising class of post-CMOS devices, FCN technologies like Quantum-dot Cellular Automata (QCA) and Silicon Dangling Bonds (SiDBs) allow for ultra-high processing performance and, at the same time, tremendously low power dissipation. In recent years, particularly SiDBs have seen major breakthroughs in their fabrication capabilities.

For my experiments, proof-of-concept implementations in the FCN domain, and as a basis for future research, I have developed the open-source fiction framework, which I maintain. It is now part of the Munich Nanotech Toolkit (MNT).

To bring the logic synthesis and machine learning domains together, I started aigverse, an infrastructure project that offers a Python wrapper around high-performance C/C++ logic synthesis suites with ML pipeline integration.

Furthermore, I have experience in Reversible Logic, Digital Microfluidic Biochips, Optical Circuits, and DNA Computing.

I am available for training and consulting.

In my free time, I work out, do yoga, go dancing, and practice freerunning, I travel the world and try to take decent looking digital photographs. I love excellent stories and science fact as well as science fiction.
