Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolDustin Broderick is a postdoctoral researcher and software engineer with 11 years of experience blending high-performance scientific computing and production backend development. He specializes in making ab initio quantum chemistry methods more efficient through fragmentation and novel energy-based screening, work developed during a PhD at The Ohio State University and continued at the University of Chicago. Equally fluent in Python, Julia, and C/C++, Dustin has modernized legacy scientific toolchains (e.g., migrating build systems to CMake) and built scalable Django backends handling millions of transactions. He has a track record of turning complex numerical methods into practical, maintainable software and has recently begun exploring Rust to further improve performance and safety. Based in Chicago, he brings a rare combination of deep domain knowledge in physical chemistry and hands-on engineering experience shipping production systems.
