Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPeter Kuma is a postdoctoral researcher and software developer with 14 years of experience at the intersection of atmospheric physics, climate modelling, remote sensing and machine learning. Based in Sweden, he blends rigorous academic research (PhD in Atmospheric Physics) with practical open-source software development for Unix-like systems, contributing reproducible tools for climate science. His work spans km-scale climate projections, cloud evaluation with ML, and novel analyses of climate model code genealogy, showing a rare focus on both model outputs and their provenance. Earlier industry roles in data engineering and full‑stack development inform his pragmatic approach to tooling and large-data workflows. Colleagues describe him as someone who bridges deep domain expertise with production-ready code—treating scientific questions as engineering problems to be solved end-to-end.
