Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolElliott Runburg is a Test Scientist and physics PhD candidate with 11 years of hands-on experience in nanoscale device fabrication, low-noise/low-temperature measurement, and scientific instrumentation software. He developed a multithreaded Python measurement suite based on QCoDeS that now runs the 2D materials measurement systems at the University of Washington, and has been the superuser of critical lab infrastructure—including wet/dry cryostats and an inert-atmosphere glovebox—for over three years. Elliott’s background blends experimental rigor (WTe2 and topological/Weyl semimetals) with practical engineering from prior instrument control work on the iLocater spectrometer, giving him a rare combination of lab stewardship, instrumentation software, and mentoring experience. He’s taught and mentored hundreds of students, led department career-development efforts, and brings a collaborative mindset to translating complex research workflows into reliable, production-grade systems.
