Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJason Hackl is an aerospace research engineer with a decade of experience developing high-order numerical methods and massively parallel simulation codes for turbulent, multiphase and shock-driven flows. He led development of CMT-Nek—a discontinuous Galerkin extension to nek5000 central to a $10M DOE PSAAP-II program—and has collaborated with national labs such as Argonne and Sandia on high-order methods. His work spans academia and government labs, from leading a university research team to integrating high-explosive modeling into the JENRE Multiphysics Framework at the Naval Research Laboratory. Jason combines deep expertise in numerical error and entropy-stable fluxes with practical experience running codes across three generations of supercomputers, and has authored multiple peer-reviewed papers and conference presentations. Based in Alexandria, VA, he brings a rare blend of hands-on code development, parallel performance tuning, and applied physics for hypersonic aerothermodynamics and shock-capturing methods.
