Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolAndrew Dolgert is a computational scientist and software architect with 11+ years of experience building high-performance, validated scientific and AI systems for academia, government, and health forecasting. He blends deep expertise in stochastic discrete-event systems, survival analysis, PDEs, demography and epidemiology with hands-on chip‑aware performance tuning, parallel programming, and provenance-aware software design. At Carnegie Mellon he now verifies next‑generation AI frameworks and edge inference using lossy number systems and agentic deployment practices for DARPA and DoD partners. Prior roles include designing large-scale forecasting pipelines and statistical software at IHME and developing a pioneering C++ stochastic simulation library used for epidemiological and agricultural disease modeling. Comfortable across Julia, Python, C/C++, Fortran, assembly and many other languages, he pairs theoretical rigor from a PhD in physics with pragmatic optimization for exascale and embedded platforms. An often-overlooked strength is his track record of translating low-level performance insights into robust, auditable scientific workflows that scale from supercomputers to edge devices.
