Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolHitarth Choubisa is a machine learning specialist and research scientist with 9 years of experience applying ML, quantum chemistry, and quantum computing to accelerate materials discovery and energy applications. As a founding-team researcher at Orbital Materials and currently at Xanadu, he builds prediction-to-demonstration pipelines that are tightly grounded in experiment, translating cutting-edge theory into practical materials solutions. His PhD from the University of Toronto yielded high-impact publications and over $1M in grant funding, and he has taught industry-focused ML bootcamps for chemists and engineers. Earlier roles at Sony and Total involved deploying ML for battery state-of-charge estimation and developing error-correction schemes for photonic quantum simulators, reflecting a rare blend of device-level engineering and advanced algorithm development. He is driven by tooling that speeds scientific discovery and often bridges academic rigor with deployable ML systems for energy materials.
