Summary
Greg Stachowski is a senior researcher and software-minded scientist with 25 years of experience in data acquisition, analysis, modelling, software development and system administration. He has an academic pedigree in astronomy (PhD) and natural sciences (Cambridge BA), and a long track record teaching and researching at Polish universities including a recent senior research role at Jagiellonian University. Greg’s career began in hands-on computing support and software development for physics research labs (MRC Cyclotron Unit, Institut Laue-Langevin), giving him deep practical skills in scientific computing and infrastructure. He blends rigorous research methods with production-oriented engineering, able to move projects from instrumentation data capture to statistical models and deployed systems. Based in Krakow, he brings the perspective of a career academic who also ships reliable software and runs research-grade IT environments. An understated strength is his sustained cross-disciplinary fluency—bridging observational astronomy, teaching, and systems engineering—to solve complex experimental and data challenges.
