Summary
A Özgüler is a founder and quantum physicist with 8+ years of interdisciplinary experience spanning quantum information science, computational materials physics, and machine-learning-driven quantum control. He holds a PhD in Physics and has driven research and applied projects at Fermilab, Pittsburgh Quantum Institute, and the University of Pittsburgh, translating tensor-network simulations and nonequilibrium quantum dynamics into novel computational and control strategies. Currently pursuing an MBA at Berkeley while launching a stealth startup, he blends deep technical fluency with emerging business and product expertise. His work uniquely links quantum-materials sensitivity studies to practical applications—from near-term quantum simulators and qudit control to surprising cross-disciplinary explorations like market hydrodynamics modeling. Based in the United States, he is comfortable operating at the intersection of high-performance computing, academic collaboration, and early-stage venture development.
