Summary
Andrew Reed is an oceanographer and data scientist with nine years of experience leading data QA/QC and methods development for large, real-time ocean observing systems. As Data Team Lead for the Coastal & Global Scale Nodes of the OOI at WHOI, he manages workflows, metadata curation, and automated QARTOD checks while also developing Python packages and tools used by the community. His PhD work produced novel dissolved-gas sensors and signal-processing methods for studying nitrogen cycling in oxygen-deficient zones, and he has a track record of diagnosing and correcting complex instrument biases (e.g., salinity drift) across large deployments. Comfortable at the interface of instrumentation, software, and fieldwork, he combines shipboard experience and electronics know-how with reproducible data engineering for long-duration sensor networks. Based in Falmouth, MA, he is active in open-source scientific software and contributes methods and technical reports to community repositories and best-practice archives.
