Summary
Ezra Brooker is a Senior Software Engineer with a decade of experience blending computational science research and production software development, currently at Pratt & Whitney. He holds advanced degrees in Computational Science and a PhD focused on turbulent combustion modeling for Type Ia supernovae, bringing deep expertise in hydrodynamics, magnetohydrodynamics, and data-driven simulation analysis. Ezra has applied his research skills at national labs and academia—modeling dust formation in supernova ejecta and probing deflagration-to-detonation transitions—then transitioned those numerical and scientific-computing strengths into engineering at scale. He is fluent in scientific Python tooling and high-performance simulation workflows, and maintains an active GitHub and academic profile that surface ongoing projects and reproducible research. Colleagues value his ability to translate complex physical models into robust, maintainable code and to communicate interdisciplinary results to both engineers and domain scientists.
