Top SchoolEdward Chapin is a Research Officer and software developer with 20 years of experience building scientific instrumentation control and data-reduction software for major astronomy facilities. Based at the Herzberg Astronomy and Astrophysics Centre in Victoria, he has designed control systems and adaptive optics software for Gemini, the Thirty Meter Telescope, and the Extremely Large Telescope, and led infrared/submillimetre detector readout R&D. His background combines high-redshift observational astrophysics with hands-on development of pipelines, cloud-enabled archives, and migration of large scientific projects to modern tooling. Comfortable in both research and operations, he has deployed mission-critical pipeline upgrades for XMM-Newton and prototyped CANFAR cloud services, bringing rigorous data-modeling and field-tested integration experience to complex international projects.
