I build ML-accelerated atomistic workflows (equivariant GNNs + DFT) to discover catalysts and understand surfaces.

Hi — I’m Ismail Can Oguz, a computational materials scientist working at the intersection of machine learning and density functional theory (DFT) for electrocatalysis and energy materials.

I build ML-assisted workflows for (i) catalyst screening, (ii) structure–property modelling, and (iii) accelerating simulation → insight → design loops.

What I’m looking for
#

I’m currently interested in roles such as:

  • Research Scientist / Research Engineer (AI for Science, Materials)
  • Computational Materials Scientist
  • ML + Atomistic Simulation / DFT + ML positions

I enjoy projects where the goal is real scientific progress: robust data, reproducible pipelines, and models that help decide what to compute/measure next.

Core skills
#

  • Atomistic simulation: DFT workflows, surfaces/adsorption, thermochemistry concepts
  • Machine learning: GNNs for atomistic systems, feature engineering, model evaluation, uncertainty-aware screening
  • Scientific software: Python, ASE-style workflows, HPC/SLURM, reproducibility & automation
  • Communication: publications, collaborative research, technical writing
