I am a physicist (M.Sc., Freie Universität Berlin) with expertise in quantum optics, cryogenics, and advanced data analysis. My research focuses on NV-center quantum systems at low temperatures, where I built and automated experimental setups, developed Python/Qudi-based control software, and analyzed large spectroscopy and spin datasets. Alongside research, I have industry experience in Israeli hi-tech (Sandisk) as a test analyst, where I optimized test automation, data visualization, and reporting pipelines. I bring a strong technical skill set in Python, SQL, Pandas, NumPy, and scientific computing, combined with hands-on hardware and instrumentation expertise. I am currently pursuing a PhD and am open to remote or hybrid freelance/part-time opportunities in: Data Analysis (Python, SQL, visualization) Scientific & Experimental Data Modeling Python Scripting & Automation Quantum/Physics Research Consulting Based in Berlin, I am also open to collaborations with Israeli and US companies and available for occasional travel if needed.
