Summary
Sebastián Caicedo-dávila is a physicist-engineer with over a decade of experience leading computational materials science teams and delivering industrial solutions that combine ab initio and molecular dynamics simulations with machine learning. Currently Head of Research at ExoMatter in Munich, he drives customized materials discovery workflows that translate cutting-edge materials informatics into time- and cost-saving decisions for customers. His background spans fundamental studies of electronic/optical properties, lattice dynamics, and charge transport from doctoral and postdoctoral work at German research institutions to applied solution engineering. Comfortable in international, multidisciplinary teams, he pairs rapid learning and high-pressure execution with strong communication in Spanish, English, and German. A rare blend of hands-on simulation expertise and product-focused delivery, he often bridges deep physics intuition with pragmatic software and engineering practices.
