Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolTiziano Müller is a Senior Research Engineer based in Zurich with 20 years of experience building scientific software, package ecosystems, and HPC-enabled workflows. He blends a PhD in Computational Science with hands-on backend development on prominent open-source projects—contributing to AiiDA core, extending phonopy with a CP2K backend, and improving Spack support for CP2K/OpenBLAS including CUDA and multi-compiler builds. His work often focuses on robust data import/parsing, error handling, and enabling reproducible force/trajectory workflows across simulation tools. A longtime Linux and Gentoo contributor and former systems engineer, he brings deep infrastructure experience that helps bridge research code and production-grade packaging. Colleagues rely on him for making complex simulation stacks portable and buildable across platforms, a skill reflected in both his research and packaging contributions.
