Fabian Finger Top-Executive

I’m a physicist-turned-machine-learning-engineer with 10+ years of experience in 💻 quantum computing,🧠 machine learning, and 🧬 biophysics. After building quantum hardware and simulation tools at ETH Zurich, TUM, and the Max-Planck Institute, I now apply generative models and machine learning to accelerate quantum and molecular discovery at Quantinuum.

Some examples of my work include:
• 𝐀 𝟏𝟎× 𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐮𝐩 𝐢𝐧 𝐪𝐮𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐮𝐦 𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐲 𝐬𝐢𝐦𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 by using GPU-accelerated backends like NVIDIA's CUDA-Q and CuStateVec for scalable LLM development in molecular ground state prediction.
• 𝐀 𝐬𝐮𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐟𝐮𝐥 $𝟏𝐌+ 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐚𝐥 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐚 𝟕% 𝐬𝐮𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞 for simulating new materials on quantum computers, coordinating a cross-team collaboration between Zurich, Budapest, and Kraków.
• 𝐀 𝟒𝟎× 𝐚𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐧𝐮𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐪𝐮𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐮𝐦 𝐬𝐢𝐦𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐛𝐲 𝐜𝐨-𝐝𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐨𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐨𝐫𝐜𝐡𝐆𝐏𝐄, a PyTorch-based, GPU-accelerated solver for nonlinear Schrödinger equations, now published in SciPost Physics Codebases and used for many-body cavity QED studies.

I'm passionate about building AI-powered tools for science together with interdisciplinary teams — from LLMs for quantum chemistry to generative models for molecular design and scientific software that accelerates discovery across disciplines.
