Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolKevin Gill is a Science Apps & Data Interaction Engineer with 11 years of experience building Unix-centric web applications, scientific visualizations, and BI/reporting systems for NASA JPL and enterprise clients. He blends systems-level languages (C/C++, Rust) and high-productivity stacks (Java, Python, PHP, JavaScript) to deliver data-heavy backends, orbital and planetary visualizations, and instrument downlink processing for missions like Curiosity, Perseverance, InSight and Cassini. At JPL he has architected mission-facing tools—OrbitViewer, Methane Source Finder, and Sea Level Portal analytics—while contributing to camera downlink operations and archival image processing across Voyager through Juno. Equally at home with databases, BI tools (BIRT, WebFOCUS) and cloud/HTTP servers, he pairs deep image-processing expertise with practical engineering to move science from raw data to publishable imagery. Based in Pasadena, he brings a rare mix of operational mission experience, academic teaching, and prior finance and systems-support roles that inform robust, production-ready solutions.
