Irene Simó Muñoz

I am currently working as a SWE at the Barcelona Supercomputing Center developing the Autosubmit workflow manager for climate modelling in High Performance Computing. Come chat at my talk in the FAIR-By-Design HPC-Driven Research minisymposium @ PASC’25 (June, 2025).

Previously I was at Georgia Tech as a graduate researcher. I collaborated with Prof. Rich Vuduc in randomized triangle counting and won 2nd place in the ACM Student Research Competition (Graduate) @ SC’24. I also worked in PDE-constrained optimization under uncertainty under Prof. Peng Chen’s supervision.

My research interests include Randomized Numerical Linear Algebra, HPC and graph problems.

In terms of education I have obtained both my Master’s in Computer Science (2024) and my Bachelor’s in Aerospace Engineering (2022). I will be starting my PhD in August, 2025.

Past experiences include an internship at Hewlett-Packard. I since have gravitated towards more academic-inclined positions, collaborating with the Barcelona Supercomutng Center (BSC) for my bachelor thesis, and interning at the International Centre of Numerical Methods in Engineering (CIMNE) among other collaborations with professors.
