Summary
Almog Yalinewich is a data scientist and postdoctoral researcher with 11 years of experience bridging theoretical astrophysics and applied data work. Trained with a PhD in Astrophysics from The Hebrew University of Jerusalem and a postdoc at the Canadian Institute for Theoretical Astrophysics and University of Toronto, he develops analytic solutions and high-fidelity moving-mesh hydrodynamic simulations to model violent transients like supernovae and tidal disruption events. Now at vFunction, he applies rigorous numerical modeling and code development skills to production problems, translating advanced simulation techniques into data-driven solutions. He is comfortable spanning theory, algorithm development, and software engineering, having built state-of-the-art simulation code for strong shock waves. Based in Israel, he brings a rare combination of deep physics insight and practical engineering discipline that helps turn complex, nonlinear problems into tractable computational workflows.
