Research Software Engineer

Rosalind Franklin Institute

Research Software Engineer, working promdinetly one day a week across a range projects.

• Creator and sole developer of DisTRaX, which is a Python application for deploying temporary storage systems onto High-Performance Compute (HPC) infrastructure in a fast and scalable fashion. For our Cryo-EM software, it reduced processing times and I/O overhead by 4.37% and 100%, respectively.
• Involed in a successful grant bid for £10,000 in research funding for ”Using Novel Cluster Technology to Improve Performance of Cryo-EM Analysis” with the University of Bristol
• Played an active role in the creation and teaching of the lessons in machine learning for the first-year PhD students.
• Gave Talks at Conferences.

Maths Circle Mentor

Exeter Mathematics School

Maths Circle Mentor is predominantly online, however occasionally in person.

• Mentored students in years 8 and 9 in mathematics to encourage the development of mathematical thinking outside of the school context.
• Successfully improved their ability to be adventurous, articulate and accepting by providing them with challenging questions and creating an effective collaborative learning environment

Scientific Computing Research Placement: Year in Industry Student

Diamond Light Source

Researched: High-Performance Object Stores for Intermediate Data processing

• Created GRAM a kernel module to represent RAM as a block device for Ceph and DisTRaC an application that allows Ceph to run on a High-Performance Computing cluster using RAM, which led to a reduction in I/O and processing times of 81.04% and 8.32%, respectively.
• Presented a poster at Ceph Day CERN and gave a talk/demo of DisTRaC to the Ceph Science Group.
• Created a proof of concept for the visualisation of objects inside an object store in real-time, which was presented at the SuperComputing 19 conference in Denver, STFC booth.
• Awarded a 3-month contract extension due to excellent work.
