My name is Farhad Javid. I'm a Research Scientist specializing in optimization, machine learning and computational physics. I am currently working at a early-stage startup, Hedral, in architectural engineering and construction (AEC) industry. Prior to Hedral, I was a research scientist at Autodesk Research, and a mechanical design engineer at Carbon3D. I have a PhD in Mechanical Engineering from McGill University and several years of postdoc research at Harvard and MIT.
