Who am I?

I am an M.Sc. physics candidate at Ruprecht Karls University of Heidelberg. I specialized in computational high-energy physics, with experience in developing FPGA-based detector algorithms and real-time data processing systems. In my master's project, to address the challenge of real-time particle track fitting in the HighLumi LHC environment, I developed a high-throughput HLS-based FPGA prototype of the General Triplet Track Fit algorithm on an AMD Alveo U280 platform.

Dual life: During my part-time role as a machine learning engineer at SAP, to address the critical need for an intelligent documentation assistance to prevent bug issues, I used Flask APIs to develop Anonymized Agentic Multimodal Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines for large-scale data processing. For a conversational AI experience, a working prototype as a SlackBot has been deployed on Cloud Foundry.

Currently, I am seeking a PhD position, bringing with me the rich industry and academic experience I have gained over the years to contribute to groundbreaking research in high-energy physics. Curious to know more? Feel free to contact me below!
