Senior🎓
Top SchoolLee Butler is a seasoned computer scientist with 37 years of experience delivering high-performance, visualization, and cybersecurity solutions for defense and research missions. At the US Army Research Laboratory he has led architecture and program management for projects ranging from BRL-CAD and interactive virtual engineering simulations to Python/OpenCV pipelines that extract data from high-speed range videos. He champions Infrastructure as Code and Dev/Sec/Ops practices to accelerate RMF/STIG compliance—architecting a process that certified 85+ applications—and builds scalable Python/Jupyter integrations that run analyses on 100-core HPC clusters. Equally comfortable with low-level C++ and microcontroller work as with cloud-deployed Drupal web apps and SQL-backed services, he combines deep technical breadth with practical systems thinking. Based in Maryland, he leads a Software Development Community of Practice and has a long track record of turning complex modeling, simulation, and visualization requirements into auditable, production-ready systems.
