Summary
Per Adrian is a physicist with 12+ years translating cutting-edge particle physics R&D into practical engineering solutions, currently applying that expertise to sensor and climate tech at Prismatic Sensors in Menlo Park. He brings deep hands-on experience in cryogenic ultra-low-noise electronics, detector design and data acquisition from leadership roles at SLAC, CERN and Fermilab, and a PhD from KTH whose thesis produced the first measurement of the top quark's electric charge. Equally comfortable at circuit board layout, SPICE modeling and firmware/software (C/C++, Python, ROOT, Linux) or leading multidisciplinary teams, he has delivered end-to-end hardware projects and led ASIC and detector test campaigns. His work blends large-scale scientific computing and machine learning for data analysis with practical thermodynamic modeling and cloud-enabled automation from industry roles like Climeon. Colleagues rely on him to bridge physics rigor and product-focused engineering, supervising students while shipping robust systems in demanding environments. An appetite for new interdisciplinary R&D means he often takes on both the detailed technical work and the project management needed to move prototypes to deployment.
