Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRyan Tang is a multidisciplinary software and data acquisition engineer with a PhD in nuclear physics and over a decade of experience building experimental systems, automations, and high-performance computing solutions at institutions like Argonne, RIKEN, and the University of Tokyo. He blends hands-on system administration, DAQ design, parallel/GPU programming, and data analysis with domain expertise in nuclear reaction theory and physics simulation. Comfortable switching between instrument control, SQL/Qt tooling, and large-scale computation, he repeatedly turns open-ended experimental challenges into reliable, reproducible workflows. Ryan’s background includes international research stints and teaching roles, and he often prefers to find problems proactively rather than wait to be assigned one—so when programming tasks allow, he returns to pursuing original physics research.
