Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJakub Prchlik is a Principal Scientist with over a decade of hands-on experience in Monte Carlo particle transport, radiation detector development, and technical program leadership, currently leading R&D at Reuter-Stokes. He blends detector physics, small-signal processing, and plasma discharge modeling with practical skills in cloud-based HPC (AWS), having developed parallelized Monte Carlo simulations and a custom AWS job scheduler to accelerate design cycles. His background spans astrophysics to metrology—authoring image reconstruction and time-series algorithms at the Harvard–Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics and improving RF and sensor metrology in industry—so he moves comfortably between theory, code, and lab validation. Known for translating customer requirements into robust system requirements and automated data pipelines, he also has a track record of mentoring, presenting to stakeholders, and optimizing harsh-environment optics and thin-film characterization. An uncommon strength is his ability to pair deep physics intuition with production engineering—turning complex simulations into deployable tests and scalable cloud workflows.
