Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolMarie Houillon is a Research Software Engineer with 10 years of experience at the intersection of high-performance scientific computing and applied mathematics, currently based at KIT. She holds a doctoral background in applied mathematics from Université de Strasbourg where she implemented massively parallel, high-order discontinuous Galerkin solvers that ran on hundreds of GPUs to simulate multi-billion–unknown electromagnetic problems. Her work spans production-ready tooling and reproducible research: she contributes to the Spack package manager to package and maintain complex simulation stacks such as openCARP and its dependencies, demonstrating deep build-system and HPC deployment expertise. Comfortable in C++ numerical libraries and large-scale parallel workflows, she bridges mathematical theory, scalable implementation and industrial collaborations. An uncommon strength is her track record of taking cutting-edge academic solvers from prototype to full-scale runs on national supercomputers.
