Summary
Johannes Brust is an applied mathematician and software developer with nine years of experience building mathematical solutions for industry and academia, currently an Assistant Professor at Arizona State University. He holds a PhD in Applied Mathematics and has focused on large-scale numerical linear algebra, optimization methods, and data-driven approaches developed during roles at Argonne, UC San Diego, and in quantitative finance. Johannes combines hands-on C++/.NET implementation experience—shipping solvers, interpolation routines, and financial models—with a research track record on trust-region and L-SR1 methods. His work blends rigorous analysis with practical code, enabling scalable solvers for real-world engineering and finance problems. Based in Tempe, he brings both academic leadership and production-grade development skills, often translating theoretical advances directly into reusable software.
