Dr. rer. nat. | AI, Cloud & DevOps | Educator
I am a physicist and software engineer with experience spanning scientific research, enterprise software development, cloud-native systems, DevOps, and artificial intelligence. Holding a Dr. rer. nat. in Physics, I have worked in both academia and industry, combining rigorous analytical thinking with practical software engineering.
Throughout my career, I have published research in quantum optics, taught at university and adult-education level, and led the development of enterprise-scale software solutions. I enjoy working at the intersection of science, software, and education, helping organizations and individuals tackle complex technical challenges.
My interests include AI, distributed systems, scientific computing, mathematical modeling, and technical education.

For conference pages, academic contexts, and more detailed invitations
Dr. Frank Zimmer combines a scientific background in physics with long-standing practice in software engineering. After a doctorate and research in quantum optics, he moved into industrial software development and now works on complex enterprise systems, cloud-adjacent architectures, DevOps, test automation, and AI topics. His work is shaped by a scientific way of thinking: clarifying models, questioning assumptions, taking uncertainty seriously, and making robust solutions understandable. Alongside his industry experience, he brings teaching experience from university, adult education, and technical knowledge transfer. He is especially interested in connecting science, software, and education, from mathematical modeling and scientific computing to practical technical training.
