Summary
👤
SeniorSeb James is a Senior Research Engineer with 12 years building and deploying complex computational neuroscience models, biomimetic muscle and motor control systems, and neuroinformatics pipelines. Currently at Opteran and previously a long-term researcher at the University of Sheffield, he blends deep academic training (PhD in Experimental Physics) with practical engineering experience in C++, optimization, machine learning and OpenGL. His background includes embedded and systems-level product architecture—leading the WML Document Platform and custom Linux builds—so he reliably moves models from prototype to production-grade software. Known for spiking neural network work on basal ganglia decision-making and a practical interest in robotic muscle control, he thrives at the intersection of neuroscience, data science and real-time systems.
