Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSedar Olmez is a multidisciplinary computer scientist and research leader with 11 years of experience building data-driven software, agent-based simulations, and reinforcement learning systems for academia, industry, and government. Currently a Senior Researcher on Fujitsu’s digital twins team and founder of PhDAdvice, he translates cutting-edge research into practical simulation solutions for councils, ministries and private-sector clients. His PhD work at the Alan Turing Institute focused on emergent behaviours in multi-agent systems using deep RL, a thread he has continued through consultancy projects like an agent-based digital twin of the Lloyd’s insurance market. He combines hands-on software engineering for researcher-facing tools with teaching and mentoring roles across universities and industry, often supervising student research and reviewing ML-for-ABM papers. Based in London, he bridges academic rigor and applied impact, and quietly balances deep technical research with client-facing delivery and coaching.
