Mark Anderson is a data scientist with a Ph.D. in particle astrophysics who blends deep research rigor with 9 years of production software experience, primarily in Python and C++ on Linux. He has built and deployed deep learning pipelines to process TB-scale detector data, led end-to-end research projects, and modernized internal software stacks for collaborative teams. Notable applied work includes a Statistics Canada internship where he automated outlier detection and crude oil price forecasting, and a genomic clustering study exploring methylation-based prostate cancer biomarkers. A proven mentor and organizer, he founded a group to adapt detector methodologies, helped architect modular Monte Carlo simulation software for COVID-19 modelling, and regularly runs workshops to improve coding practices. Now at Larus, he’s looking to transfer his multidisciplinary experimental and ML toolkit into industry challenges that demand robust, maintainable systems.
