Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolJosh Bowden is a software engineer and high-performance computing specialist with a PhD in Materials Science and a track record of translating research needs into scalable, performant software. He brings deep expertise in C/C++, parallel programming (OpenMP, MPI, CUDA, OpenCL), performance tooling (V-Tune, PAPI), and HPC workflows across SLURM, PBS and cloud environments. Josh has applied these skills across research labs and national institutes—optimizing simulation I/O, building CI and back-end processing for middleware like Damaris, and containerizing HPC stacks with Docker and Singularity. Currently focused on FAIR-aligned data packaging and RO-Crate tooling for plant phenomics, he blends low-level optimization experience with data stewardship practices. Colleagues rely on him for bridging algorithmic performance tuning and reproducible research pipelines, and he has a proven history of enabling domain scientists to scale analytics to cluster and cloud resources.
