Senior🎓
Top SchoolSebastian Kirchner is a Technical Project Manager and Data Scientist based in Munich with 8 years of experience building sensor perception, map learning and location-based services for autonomous driving at BMW Group. He combines a PhD in theoretical physics and a background in high-performance scientific computing with hands-on software engineering to translate research-grade algorithms into production ADAS components. At BMW he has led cross-functional development of map and localisation services and helped shape Large-Scale-Scrum processes, bridging product, research and engineering teams. His earlier academic work on precision Higgs-boson predictions honed expertise in C++, numerical methods and Monte Carlo techniques—skills he now applies to robust perception and mapping pipelines. Notably, he pairs deep theoretical rigor with practical delivery experience, favoring pragmatic experimentation with new technologies to solve real-world autonomy challenges.
