Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolEthan Sunshine is a computational scientist and Member of Technical Staff who builds machine-learning-driven surrogate models and optimization tools for chemical engineering and sustainable energy problems. With a PhD from Carnegie Mellon and four years of research-focused experience, he has developed piecewise-linear surrogate models and graph-neural-network workflows to predict chemical properties and accelerate process design. His work bridges academic rigor—PhD research and national lab internships—with product-oriented research at Quadrillion Labs and a quant internship at Hudson River Trading, demonstrating fluency in both research and production settings. Based in New York, he combines chemical engineering and mathematics training to translate quantum and data-driven simulations into practical engineering decisions, often finding elegant, computationally efficient approximations where full-scale models are impractical.
