Summary
Jörn Schumacher is a software engineer with a PhD in Computer Science and 15 years of experience building high-throughput, low-latency systems for scientific research and finance. He has deep expertise in RDMA, interconnects and HPC networking from roles at CERN—where he helped architect data-acquisition components for ATLAS handling ~100 TB/s—and now applies that knowledge to low-latency C++ systems at IMC Trading and Tensor Technologies. Comfortable moving between research-grade distributed systems and production trading infrastructure, he combines rigorous academic methods with pragmatic performance engineering. Based in Switzerland, he brings hands-on mastery of C/C++ and domain-specific optical/ networking interfaces, and a track record of turning extreme-scale research problems into reliable, high-performance software.
