Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolNicolas Aspert is a research engineer with 25 years of experience specializing in digital holographic microscopy, 3D surface representation and real-time image and video processing. Based at EPFL in Lausanne, he is a core developer of microscopy software combining GUI design, high-throughput acquisition, GPU acceleration and 3D rendering across Windows, Linux and macOS. His background spans R&D software architecture and academic research, anchored by a PhD in signal and image processing and a decade-long industry stint at Lyncee Tec. Fluent in C/C++/C#, CUDA, OpenGL and Qt and comfortable with scripting and system administration, he bridges low-level performance engineering with practical product delivery. Notably, he pairs decades of production-grade tooling (from legacy Visual Studio debuggers to modern gdb and packaging like Wix/deb) with hands-on Linux administration, making him effective on both research prototypes and deployed clinical-grade applications.
