David Bucher is a Munich-based physicist and quantum software leader with 8 years of experience building and managing quantum algorithm projects. As Head of R&D at Aqarios, he progressed from technical project manager to lead research, bridging applied physics and production software. He contributed to Qiskit-Aqua—implementing and refactoring HHL and QPE components—bringing hands-on expertise in linear systems algorithms and edge cases like negative eigenvalues and debugging modes. A Master’s graduate from LMU Munich, he pairs rigorous academic training with practical product delivery from an IBM Extreme Blue HHL prototype to commercial R&D. Colleagues describe him as a programmer at heart who frames deep theoretical concepts into reproducible code and team-ready solutions.
