Fatih Maulana

Quantum Researcher & Full-Stack Engineer

I build secure, scalable systems for the quantum era — from research algorithms to production applications.

About

I'm a frontend engineer with a specialty in quantum computing research, focused on building pixel-perfect, intuitive user interfaces. I enjoy working at the intersection of design and engineering, where great user experience meets robust, clean, and scalable code.

Currently, I'm a Computer Science Researcher at Universiti Utara Malaysia, where I work on benchmarking hybrid quantum-classical algorithms. In this role, I lead research efforts across VQC optimization, particle physics classification, and ML patterns, partnering closely with professors and engineers to ensure research translates to practical applications.

Previously, I've worked across a wide range of environments, from government institutions to startups and tech companies, including Ibunda.id and StudentxCEOs. Alongside my professional work, I also salvaged a national voting system 24 hours before launch. These experiences have shaped how I think about building products that are both well-crafted and widely usable.

Outside of work, you can usually find me diving into research papers on quantum machine learning or exploring the intersection of physics and high-frequency trading.
