Top SchoolAeon Fan is a Senior R&D Software Developer based in Auckland with 11 years of experience building full-stack and embedded systems across research, healthcare, aerospace, and enterprise product teams. He currently drives R&D initiatives at Gallagher, advocating for stronger software practices like unit testing and repository patterns while working on confidential projects. Past roles span full-stack product development for legal compliance, research engineering for adaptive optics and ultrafast spectroscopy, and embedded BLE work that improved CPAP device throughput via a greedy chunking algorithm. Comfortable across Python, C++, C#, web stacks and Qt GUIs, he bridges research-grade tooling and production software with a knack for performance and automation. Aeon pairs technical depth with practical pragmatism—parallelising data pipelines to cut processing time from minutes to seconds and designing comms protocols for CubeSat payloads. Outside work he explores VR, bringing a creative, hands-on curiosity to both hobby and professional projects.
