Mattia Montanari is Principal Engineer at PhysicsX, where he leads the implementation of agentic workflows across data science, CAD, and CAE. At Oxford University, he completed his studies and postdoctoral research, then founded the Oxford X-Reality Hub in 2017; he now holds an Honorary Teacher position.
Drawing on over 15 years in computational mechanics, he has developed methods and tools to enhance simulations holistically, with work that bridges engineering and computer graphics — recognised through publications including ICLR and an invited technical note at SIGGRAPH. Prior to PhysicsX, he was Principal at Huawei and Developer at Ansys.
His education includes a DPhil from Oxford University, an MSc from École Centrale de Nantes, an MEng from Swansea University, and a BEng from the University of Bologna, with a visiting period at KTH Stockholm.
