About

Posted on Jun 23, 2025

I am a physics student at the University of Warsaw. My scientific career has been largely focused on developing software for a variety of scientific tasks, primarily in Bayesian modeling and High-Performance Computing (HPC).

In high school, I competed in several scientific Olympiads, where I had the honor of representing my country at the International Olympiad on Astronomy and Astrophysics. Today, I remain committed to this beautiful Olympic tradition and serve as a judge in various competitions.

Experience

UBS AG – Quantitative Developer Intern Jul 2025 – Present
  • Working on the proprietary C++ engine used to price Lombard loans.
  • Benchmarking performance of the engine, identifiying computational bottlenecks.
  • Code optimization leading to 3 $\times$ speedup.
