Summary
Mark Lohry is a research aerospace engineer and CFD specialist with eight years of professional experience building high-order, high-performance flow solvers and scalable software architectures for heterogeneous HPC platforms. He has driven solver redesigns, nonlinear multigrid advances, and GPU acceleration across industry and government—most recently advancing NASA’s FUN3D capabilities and exascale validation on Aurora and Frontier. His work blends deep numerical analysis (spectral-like and DG methods, algebraic multigrid) with pragmatic software engineering—platform-agnostic solver designs, in-situ visualization, and automated control of iterative nonlinear solvers. A Princeton PhD-trained developer, he pairs academic rigor with production-grade engineering, and brings an almost obsessive attention to typesetting and reproducible scientific software.
