Simulation Engineer

Physics, FEM and molecular dynamics · AI agents applied to engineering · 10+ years in European R&D

Simulation engineer (physics, FEM, molecular dynamics) applying AI agents to engineering. Every result is checked against a reference; every tool is also tested by agents. More than ten years between physics and software — molecular dynamics, finite elements, optimal control and, in recent years, machine learning and generative AI on industrial and scientific problems, within European projects (Horizon Europe, ERC, PRIMA).

What I care about is computation you can trust: results contrasted against a reference, and tools that agents also exercise — when an agent gets something wrong, it usually points at a flaw in the tool.

How I work

• Validate against a reference

  A result is only worth something if it can be compared: an analytical solution, an experiment or a reference code. The reference comes first, the model second.

• A ladder of tests

  From the one-line case up to the full model, one step at a time. When something breaks, you know exactly where.

• Agents as a usability test

  Simulation tools are driven by agents too. When an agent gets it wrong, it almost always exposes a flaw in the tool rather than in the agent.
