Summary
Naoki Hori is a software engineer with eight years of experience who blends rigorous physics research with practical software craftsmanship, currently working at Accenture Song after a stint at Yumemi and a PhD candidacy in Physics of Fluids at the University of Twente. He codes fluently in C, Rust, Python, and TypeScript, with a particular interest in modeling and replicating physical phenomena—especially computational fluid dynamics—and seeking simpler, more transparent, and more rigorous solutions. His academic background from The University of Tokyo and exchange at KTH underpins a strong foundation in mechanical engineering and numerical methods. Naoki brings a researcher’s precision to engineering problems, turning complex PDE-driven models into maintainable, efficient code. Though his GitHub is light on public spectacle (“Just for fun”), his profile reflects a practitioner who values clarity over flash and explores ideas across physics, math, and software. Based in Japan, he’s equally at home prototyping simulations and shipping production software that operationalizes scientific insight.
