Top SchoolRyota Kiuchi is a Manager and Lead Data Scientist based in Tokyo with eight years of experience applying signal processing, numerical analysis, and statistical methods to seismic hazard and earthquake source problems. He holds a Ph.D. in Geophysics and Seismology from Kyoto University and was a visiting researcher at the USGS, where he contributed to developing GMPEs for tectonically and volcanically active regions. At Trailblazer he has advanced from Data Scientist to management, translating research-grade modelling and Fortran/Python toolchains into production analytics. His technical toolkit spans Fortran, Python, R, Matlab, SAC and GMT, enabling end-to-end seismic data workflows from preprocessing to regression-driven hazard models.
