Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJoão Dos Santos is an AI Systems Engineer and PhD-trained computational neuroscientist with eight years of experience developing robust, FAIR-compliant scientific software for modeling biochemical and neural systems. He built Subcellular_Workflow, a modular MATLAB framework that implements complex algorithms (parameter estimation, sensitivity and profile likelihood analysis) and has been validated on challenging benchmarks and published in Neuroinformatics. Highly proficient in MATLAB (SimBiology, Optimization) with practical Python skills, he excels at translating mathematical models into reusable, well-documented tools that accelerate reproducible research. Since 2022 he has integrated LLMs into his engineering workflow to speed code generation, debugging, and learning—rapidly picking up Kotlin/Android to prototype an app. A systematic problem-solver and founder of Octidy, João is now applying his algorithm and scientific-computing expertise to industry roles in neurotechnology, scientific computing, or AI/ML, based in the Netherlands or remotely.
