Summary
Lee Bardon is a research-focused software engineer with a decade of experience applying computational methods to Earth and ocean sciences and building production web and data tools for high-traffic university systems. He combines an academic background in condensed matter and planetary simulations (MPhil, UCL) with practical software engineering skills gained at Flatiron School and as a Software Engineer at the University of Southampton, where he led Python automation projects and supported a C#/ASP.NET Core stack. As founder of a successful plant-based food brand, he brings entrepreneurial grit, commercial awareness, and measurable growth outcomes alongside his technical aptitude. Comfortable across Linux, HPC, Python, and modern web stacks (JavaScript/React, Ruby/Rails), he excels at translating complex scientific workflows into reliable, automated systems. Currently researching ocean sciences at USC, he’s a pragmatic problem-solver who enjoys tackling both large-scale system integration and data-centric scripting that others defer.
