Senior🎓
Top SchoolRobin Lombaert is a data-driven scientist and educator with 15 years of experience applying advanced numerical methods and Python engineering to astrophysics and molecular-line modeling. After a PhD and postdoctoral roles at KU Leuven and Chalmers, he built and maintained a version-controlled, object-oriented Python package (ComboCode) that interfaces with Fortran/C codes, automates supercomputer workflows, and embeds custom databases and profiling for high-performance scientific analysis. Now serving as Deputy Principal while exploring maths education, he combines classroom leadership with deep technical chops in data analysis, statistics, and software design. A fast learner and persistent problem-solver, he prefers robust, well-profiled solutions over quick fixes and has a knack for spotting design flaws and proposing practical alternatives. His background uniquely blends peer-reviewed research, open-source scientific tooling, and hands-on teaching experience.
