Summary
Thomas Haschka is a Senior System Architect specializing in cloud, high-performance computing and AI, currently leading HPC and cloud operations at TU Wien with 11 years of hands-on research and engineering experience. Trained as a biophysicist with a PhD, he bridges molecular simulation, numerical methods and data science to deliver GPU‑optimized scientific software and scalable cloud workflows. His work spans quantum chemistry, structural mechanics and epidemiological modelling, and has produced both peer‑reviewed publications and 3D-rendered, exhibited digital art. He has repeatedly translated academic methods into production-ready systems for industry and research—from optimizing finite-element and ray-tracing pipelines to deploying ML models in embedded and cloud environments. Notably, he founded an open project on bacterial cellulose textiles and combines visualization skills (Blender) with algorithmic rigour to make complex data both analyzable and visually compelling. Based in Vienna, he is an interdisciplinary problem-solver who thrives at the intersection of advanced informatics, physics and engineering.
