Summary
Kristof Schütt is a Senior Principal Machine Learning Research Scientist in Berlin with nearly a decade of hands-on experience building deep learning models for quantum chemistry, materials science and related applications. He holds a summa cum laude Dr.-Ing. in Machine Learning and has led research groups and PhD supervision at Technische Universität Berlin before moving to industry at Pfizer. Kristof is a core contributor and back-end engineer on SchNetPack, extending its atomistic modules (forces, dipoles, polarizability) and driving PyTorch-based toolchains for ML-driven quantum simulations. His work spans interpretable architectures, equivariant neural networks and generative models for molecules, bridging foundational research and production-ready implementations. Notably, he has applied deep learning beyond chemistry—developing speech-enhancement models for hearing aids—demonstrating a pragmatic ability to translate research into real-world products.
