Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolOleg Korobkin is a technology leader and physicist turned CTO with over a decade of experience bridging high-performance scientific computing and applied AI. He spent many years at Los Alamos National Laboratory as a staff scientist and postdoctoral fellow, applying numerical relativity, CUDA/OpenCL and particle hydrodynamics to problems like neutron star mergers, GRB accretion disks, and r-process nucleosynthesis. Now leading technology at SlicAI, he combines deep domain expertise in tensor-network data compression and scientific ML with hands-on systems experience to move research-grade simulations toward production. Trained at MIPT and holding a PhD from LSU, he brings rare fluency across analytic theory, scalable GPU code, and machine learning—often applying compact multidimensional representations to make large-scale physics tractable. An uncommon detail: his work focuses not just on accuracy of simulations but on compact, tensor-train representations that reduce data complexity for downstream AI workflows.
