Srdjan Sarikas is a computational scientist and software engineer with 10 years of experience turning domain-specific scientific problems into reliable, interpretable software. With a PhD in physics and a track record across academia and industry, he has optimized legacy numerical code (Fortran/Python) for orders-of-magnitude speedups, built scalable data pipelines for TB-scale visualization, and delivered field-ready apps that standardize operations and reduce technician error. He partners closely with domain experts—scientists, engineers and public agencies—to translate ambiguous requirements into clear architectures and implement key algorithms when needed. Notable work includes real-time infrasound/seismic analysis tools, an SOP-aware RAG preprocessing pipeline for >800 documents, and rapid epidemiological modelling during the pandemic. Based in Austria and now freelancing, he blends theoretical rigor with pragmatic engineering to produce tools that both accelerate discovery and empower non-technical users.
