Martin feels right at home when it comes to structuring and modelling data and processes at RUBI Railtec. He originally studied environmental physics at ETH Zurich and did his doctorate at EAWAG in Dübendorf on "Uncertainty Analysis of Model Predictions for Environmental Systems: Concepts and Application to Lake Modelling."

Away from research, Martin first moved to PriceWaterhouseCoopers as a data mining consultant and then to UBS, where he modelled customer behaviour and their product affinities. In parallel, his passion for Argentine tango built up. In addition to his work at RUBI Railtec, Martin runs a dance school for Argentine tango and organises international events.
