Summary
Jim Rosinski is a retired software engineer and computational scientist with 14 years of focused experience in parallelizing and optimizing atmospheric and climate models for extreme-scale computing. His career spans research and applied roles at NOAA, UCAR, Oak Ridge, SiCortex, Boeing, and NCAR where he ported legacy codes to GPUs and novel architectures like Intel MIC and SiCortex. Combining formal training in atmospheric science (McGill, UW–Madison) with an MS in Computer Science from CU Boulder, he sits at the intersection of domain science and high-performance computing. Known for translating complex scientific models into production-ready, architecture-aware implementations, he has a track record of customer-facing optimization work as well as research collaborations. Based in Boulder, Colorado, he now leverages decades of multidisciplinary expertise in a retired capacity, often advising or consulting on computational performance and model portability.
