Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolGiacomo Capodaglio is a computational scientist and applied mathematician with 11 years of experience translating advanced numerical methods into production-ready software, currently working as an MTS Software Applications Engineer at AMD in Austin. His background spans postdoctoral research and scientist roles at Los Alamos and academia, where he developed domain-decomposition, multigrid, and particle-tracking algorithms implemented in parallel C++ for PDEs and nonlocal diffusion problems. He combines deep theory—PhD in Applied Mathematics—with hands-on engineering for uncertainty quantification, probability density estimation, and scalable simulation tooling. Comfortable teaching and communicating complex math (experience as a university instructor), he bridges researcher and developer perspectives to make sophisticated models practical. Fluent in Italian and English, he brings an international engineering education from the University of Bologna to U.S. national-lab and industry settings, often favoring elegant numerical approaches that scale to high-performance computing environments.
