Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSaugat Kandel is a Software Engineer II based in Redwood City with a PhD in Applied Physics and over a decade of scientific and optimization engineering experience applied to imaging and autonomous experimentation. He builds and deploys real- and complex-valued convolutional networks for high-speed coherent imaging (demonstrated at up to 20 kHz for 512x512 frames) and crafts multi-objective Bayesian optimization methods to tune adaptive optics with remarkable data efficiency. His work at Argonne and Chan Zuckerberg Biohub bridges algorithm research and production systems for cryo-EM and synchrotron imaging, reducing experimental sampling needs by ~70%. Comfortable across Python, C++, and edge deployments, he combines deep domain expertise in inverse problems with practical engineering for real-time scientific instruments.
