I develop high-performance numerical methods and scientific software for quantum optimal control and other cutting-edge scientific problems. I am a PhD candidate in Computational Mathematics, Science, and Engineering at Michigan State University, and I am the developer of the open-source Julia package QuantumGateDesign.jl, which quickly solves quantum optimal control problems using a novel, high-order numerical method based on Hermite interpolation. You can read about the method in our publication in Journal of Computational Physics (or in the arXiv preprint).

I am looking for a job after I graduate! If you are looking for someone with experience in writing high-performance software for physics simulations, especially for quantum optimal control, please email me at leespen1@msu.edu, or contact me on LinkedIn.
