Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMarcel Štefko is a Senior Software Engineer in Zurich with over a decade of experience building simulation and data-processing software for robotics and remote sensing. He combines a strong academic background (PhD and postdoc at ETH Zurich, MSc from EPFL) with hands-on engineering across NVIDIA Isaac Sim, Omniverse, ROS/ROS2, CUDA, Python and PyTorch to drive humanoid-robot simulation and AI workflow deployment. His work spans field campaigns at high-altitude sites and space-related projects (ESA), giving him rare expertise in both harsh real-world experimentation and virtualized simulation stacks. Comfortable moving between radar signal processing and reinforcement learning environments, he accelerates productisation of research prototypes into production-grade simulation tooling. Colleagues rely on him to bridge hardware, software and scientific teams while maintaining reproducible, programmatic workflows (nix, Nextflow) for complex experiments.
