With a strong passion for developing a clean and abundant energy source, I have embraced the role of advancing company's core technology. - To validate the concept at cutting-edge facilities, I led an international collaboration and engaged stakeholders at various levels. - My responsibilities extend to the development of novel optical setups that are pivotal to the implementation of the fusion technology. - I directed efforts of purchasing equipment for experimental setups ensuring alignment with project specifications and budget constraints.Output: - When I joined the company, it was undergoing a fast and transformative growth. I built and managed a team with whom I completed two projects with aggressive deadlines in time and budget. - Transformed the specification definition by focusing on the use of ISO-10110 standard. - I created and implemented quality verification processes to ensure the specified parameters are met.

Berkeley

In the researcher role, I advanced the understanding of ultrafast processes in physical chemistry with cutting-edge X-ray technology. My major responsibilities were: - Management of all aspects of research projects, from conceptualisation to execution, contributing to significant advancements in the field. - Leading international collaborations with Stanford Linear Accelerator facility, Technical University of Denmark, and University of Southern California. - Analysis of large experimental datasets extracting meaningful insights and trends from complex data. - Building and management of a team of experimental researchers, overseeing five Doctoral and two undergraduate students.Output: - Published a series of research papers in peer-reviewed journals. - Presented findings at international conferences, sharing research results with the global scientific community.

Lausanne Area, Switzerland

My responsibilities were: - Conducting research at the forefront on gas-phase biomolecules using cryogenic spectroscopy and mass spectrometry, contributing to the understanding of molecular structure and recognition. - Development of lasers and ultrahigh vacuum technology. - Analysis of complex datasets, identifying key trends and insights that informed ongoing research and experimental adjustments. - Quantum mechanical simulations on a supercomputer, enabling precise modelling of molecular structures. - Facilitating the transfer of research findings into prototype technologies (USA Patent).

Moscow, Russian Federation

I studied radical anions of ketones in frozen matrix by means of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR).1) High energy chemistry of solvated electron;2) EPR spectroscopy;3) quantum mechanical calculations.

Los Angeles

In my summer project, I studied laser-induced desorption of nitrogen oxide from amorphous solid water irradiated with laser in a vacuum setup.

Hamburg, Germany

The group experimented with high gain harmonic generation in free-electron laser. I worked under the supervision of Priv. Doz. Tim Laarmann and the mentorship of Dr. Joern Boedewadt. The goal of my project was to calibrate a micro-channel plate (MCP) detector in order to measure the intensity of synchrotron radiation.
