Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolFilip Leonarski is a Beamline Data Scientist with eight years of experience building high-throughput data acquisition and on-the-fly analysis systems for macromolecular crystallography at the Paul Scherrer Institut. He designed an FPGA-based smart NIC, Linux kernel driver, and software stack to handle a 36 GB/s JUNGFRAU X-ray detector on a single server, and continues to optimize CPU algorithms for GPU and FPGA acceleration. His background spans physics-informed research and production engineering—from PhD-level computational chemistry and molecular simulation to HLS FPGA programming and POWER9/Intel performance tuning. He has published in high-impact journals (including Nature Methods) and uniquely combines experimental instrumentation insight with edge-computing and heterogeneous compute expertise. Based in Villigen, Switzerland, he focuses on turning extreme data-rate challenges into reliable, real-time analysis pipelines.
