amusingly functional analysis is really important to convex analysis and optimization so yes if you have a phd/masters (maybe) you can definitely get - probably a giant company - to pay you to do functional analysis.
- gremble 9y agoOf all the great replies I've gotten, this one has arguably alleviated my concerns the most.
- zintinio5 9y agoI've seen at least one or two companies working on optimization at least here on HN. I'd take a guess that Gurobi is one option, and I saw SigOpt post a listing on the recent "Who's Hiring?" thread. Google seems to also do a lot of optimization related work as well. I'm in the same boat, though I was stronger in CS during my studies. The background is useful, but you will only ever use bits and pieces of it at opportune moments.
