Bio
Jim Walker
"Quentin worked in close collaboration with ThoughtWorks for a few months while working at ANT. During his time, he was of great help in defining the requirements of software development for a 'control system' for all the devices used in a green, hydrogen electrolysis, storage and fuel cell system. He helped TW software developers understand how the fuel cell system operated. Quentin was a pleasure to work with, and got along well and quickly integrated with our project team".
Francesco Iacoviello
"A very successful researcher" is the phrase that comes to mind when I think about Quentin. I’ve had the pleasure of knowing him for almost two years, during which we were part of the EIL group at University College London. We collaborated closely on a project which led to some new really interesting results as well as a scientific publication. Above all, I was impressed with Quentin’s leadership ability in planning the project and dealing with difficult tasks very easily and efficiently. He also won multiple prizes in the field of Chemical Engineering in recognition for the excellent work he carried on. And, of course, he is a very enjoyable person and no matter how tense a meeting, Quentin makes sure everyone leaves with a smile. Quentin would be a true asset to any team and comes with my heartfelt recommendation.
