Marc Bacvanski‍

Hello! I’m Marc. I’m currently a student at Northeastern University, studying Computer Science in the Artificial Intelligence track.

These days I am more interested in quantum computing, artificial intelligence, and data science/ML. In the past, I have been deeply involved in full stack web and mobile development.

I love startups, case competitions, hip hop dance, jazz, learning to play the saxophone, film photography, learning exciting things, and sharing that excitement with others.

Currently

• 👨‍🔬 Looking for a research internship in quantum information, available starting January 2022. Here’s my resume!
• 🤏 Developing atom arrangement algorithms for large Rydberg atom arrays! Research at the University of Waterloo’s Institute for Quantum Computing, in the Transformative Quantum Technologies group.
• 👨‍💻 VP of Technology Consulting at Northeastern’s TAMID chapter
• 🛫 Moving back to Boston for the fall 2021 school semester!

Recently

• 👍 Intern at Facebook on the AI and Data Developer Experience team!
• 🦾 Software engineering intern at Vicarious Surgical!
• 🔎 Venture analyst at Northeastern’s IDEA Venture Accelerator. I’m stepping away temporarily in 2021.
• ⚛️ Completed CS-191x: Quantum Mechanics and Quantum Computation, a course from UC BerkeleyX taught by Prof. Umesh Vazirani. Topics included the Quantum Fourier Transform, Grover’s algorithm, Shor’s algorithm, Hamiltonians, Schrödinger’s equation, and manipulating physical spin qubits.
• 🧠 Completed a specialization in deep learning, where I learned how to build and apply deep neural networks, CNNs, RNNs, and sequence models.
• 🌐 Received a certificate from IBM’s Qiskit Global Summer School! I learned to use Qiskit to run quantum algorithms on real quantum hardware.
• 🔥 Created an interactive vibe alignment chart for Boston
