Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolOliver King is a Senior Research Software Engineer based in Oxford with 10 years’ experience at the intersection of deep learning, 3D imaging and chemical/biological research. He supports AI-in-Science projects at the University of Oxford, guiding postdocs on applied ML workflows from animal-tracking and pose classification to inverse design on HPC clusters, and teaches software engineering best practices. Previously he shipped production tools for 3D tomography segmentation and beamline automation at Diamond Light Source, enabling non-experts to train and deploy deep networks on multi-gigabyte datasets. Comfortable in both lab and engineering environments, he combines a PhD-level scientific background with hands-on skills in Python, PyTorch, SQL and HPC, and has practical experience integrating ML into lab informatics and ELNs. An underappreciated strength is his ability to translate complex experimental problems into reproducible software pipelines that accelerate discovery.
