As Lead Algorithm / Software Engineer in the Tour Planning Team:

• Improving and further developing a rich Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP) solver in Rust
• Developing new state-of-the-art meta-heuristics

As a Senior Algorithm Engineer in the Routing Team I was responsible for developing state-of-the-art routing algorithms in a AWS cloud environment using Rust:

• customizable contraction hierarchies
• via-routing
• route matching

Consulting services for a line haul solution:

• design of mixed-integer linear program
• implementation of a fast multi-objective routing algorithm

As a mathematician and computer scientist, I worked three years as Postdoc at the Institute for Operations Research at ETH Zürich. I was in the lead of two industry collaborations:

• With the Swiss Post, we optimized the tours for same-day delivery in Zurich and other Swiss cities using local-search-based meta-heuristics.
• For the Swiss Federal Railways SBB, I developed a high performance algorithm for optimal rolling stock scheduling.

Furthermore, my research included

• Nash flows over time (agent-based traffic modeling)
• design and implementation of a fast clustering algorithm
• research in efficient algorithms, meta-heuristics, parallelism, and operations research

Research Group: Combinatorial Optimization & Graph Algorithm, Institute of Mathematics:

• ECMath and MATH+ research projects: dynamic models and algorithms for equilibria in traffic networks
• research goals: improving agent-based mathematical flow over time models (Nash flow over time) to connect with large-scale traffic simulations such as MATSim
