Physics PhD candidate seeks transition to ML Engineering role

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A Ph.D. candidate in electrical engineering with a focus on quantum optics and photonics is seeking advice on transitioning into a Machine Learning Engineering role. The individual highlights extensive software development experience, participation in coding competitions, and several ML-based research projects, including one focused on SiC grating design optimization and another using ML for qubit control. They are particularly interested in Physics-Informed Neural Networks (PINNs) and other physical applications of ML, and are looking for insights from others who have made similar career transitions, especially those with a physics background.
