Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDany Vohl is an affiliated scientific researcher and software engineer with 14 years of experience building large-scale data systems for radio astronomy, specializing in signal processing, transient searches, catalog cross-matching, and VLBI calibration. He combines astrophysics expertise—focused on populations and environments of compact objects like pulsars and FRBs—with hands-on engineering to deliver end-to-end pipelines for observatories such as LOFAR, Westerbork, and Cerro Tololo. His work enables high-cadence, high-sensitivity discovery by scaling workflows across petascale data streams and integrating domain knowledge into reusable community infrastructure. Trained in Australia with roots in Québec and now based in the Netherlands, he brings a cross-continental perspective and a rare blend of GPU-accelerated algorithm development and operational observatory experience.
