Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDaniel Rosen is a software engineer with 11 years of experience specializing in coupling and integration of Earth system models using ESMF and NUOPC, currently developing core framework components at NCAR. He has led coupling work for major projects including the UFS, NASA’s Land Coupler, COAMPS, and CMEPS, and has authored NUOPC interfaces for models such as LIS, WRF-Hydro, HYCOM, ParFlow and the Community Fire Behavior Model. His contributions to NASA-LIS demonstrate practical expertise in backend configuration and enabling cross-model features like NoahMP support, highlighting a strength in making complex scientific codes interoperable and production-ready. With a CS master’s from the University of Colorado and a background spanning systems administration to enterprise application support, he blends deep research software know-how with real-world operational experience. Colleagues rely on him for both framework maintenance and pragmatic coupling solutions that bridge research models into operational forecasting.
