Matthew Yannetti is a versatile game developer and scientific programmer with 10 years of experience turning complex environmental and meteorological data into readable, performant tools and visualizations. He blends an M.S. in Earth and Atmospheric Science and a B.S. in Computer Science to bridge domain science and software engineering, contributing backend performance tooling to the widely used GEOS-Chem codebase. As the founder of Space Mouse, LLC, he self-publishes games and digital art while previously building weather systems at Pelmorex and metadata tools for NOAA, demonstrating comfort across Linux, cloud, and legacy C/Fortran environments. He’s also delivered web and WordPress solutions, Unity and Blender training, and custom plugins—showing a rare mix of creative product sensibility and rigorous performance-focused engineering. Based in Peterborough, Ontario, he prefers remote roles and often focuses on human-readable data presentation as much as algorithmic accuracy.

GEOS-Chem "Science Codebase" repository. Contains GEOS-Chem science routines, run directory generation scripts, and interface code. This repository is used as a submodule within the GCClassic and GCHP wrappers, as well as in other modeling contexts (external ESMs).
Role in this project:
Back-end Developer
Contributions:15 commits in 1 year
Contributions summary:Matthew primarily contributed to the `geos-chem` repository by implementing and updating a module for tracking and timing code execution, named `geos_timers`. Their work involved adding, starting, and ending timers within the Fortran code to measure performance. Further contributions included updating and fixing the `geos_timers` module to improve functionality. Also the user added error handling and printing of timer data.
