Senior🎓
Top SchoolArmin Sobhani is an experienced HPC and ARC technical consultant based at Ontario Tech University with over two decades of hands-on experience developing parallel scientific software and supporting research compute users. He brings deep expertise in bioinformatics and in-silico drug design alongside practical mastery of shared and distributed-memory programming (OpenMP, MPI, PGAS) and heterogeneous/XPU ecosystems (CUDA, ROCm, oneAPI, OpenCL, OpenACC, SYCL). At SHARCNET and the Digital Research Alliance of Canada he combines training, outreach and one-on-one consulting to help faculty and students translate scientific codes to run efficiently at regional and national HPC scales. His background spans academia and research centers including Barcelona Supercomputing Center and a PhD in Pharmacology, which gives him a rare blend of domain knowledge and low-level performance engineering. Outside work he channels curiosity into cooking, photography and competitive gaming—activities that mirror his methodical, experimental approach to optimization and problem solving.
