Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAndrei Rykhlevskii is a Principal Nuclear Methods Engineer and technical lead with over a decade of experience developing and applying advanced reactor simulation tools for steady-state neutronics. He has driven deployment and enhancement of Monte Carlo and deterministic toolchains (MCNP, Serpent, OpenMC, VESTA) across national labs and startups, improving computational throughput and safety analysis practices. With a Ph.D. in Nuclear Engineering from UIUC and roles at Argonne, Oak Ridge, and TerraPower, he blends deep research rigor with production-focused engineering leadership. Notably, his background spans both Russian reactor design and U.S. national-lab environments, giving him uncommon cross-cultural insight into reactor systems and regulatory expectations. Passionate about high-performance computing, he focuses on turning complex physics into scalable, auditable simulation workflows that accelerate reactor innovation.
