Biography
Sean Dettrick has developed HPC simulations of fusion plasmas on a litany of now obsolete HPC systems and, having learned his lesson, now prefers to use high-level, open-source libraries and frameworks to develop hardware-agnostic solutions. While working in private industry he has been connected to Department of Energy leadership computing as lead principal investigator on INCITE and ALCC program awards and as a technical representative to the Exascale Computing Project. Sean received a PhD in theoretical physics from Australian National University and worked at the Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute and the University of California, Irvine before joining a VC-funded fusion plasma company, TAE Technologies, where he now acts as Director of Computational Sciences.
