Summary
William Patiño is a computational physicist with over 10 years of experience applying simulation methods (molecular dynamics, Monte Carlo, Brownian dynamics, cellular automata) and numerical techniques to complex physical systems. He pairs deep domain expertise from a PhD in Physics with hands-on software and systems skills across C/C++, Python, Bash, SQL and web basics, plus administrative Linux competencies like kernel compilation, NFS/NIS and DHCP. His career blends research and teaching—postdoctoral and multiple lecturer roles at top Colombian universities—while leading computational projects since 2011. Comfortable across Linux, Windows and macOS, he leverages scientific tooling (Emacs, LaTeX, Gnuplot) to deliver reproducible computational science. Notably, he bridges low-level hardware and system configuration with high-level simulation development, making him effective at optimizing code and infrastructure for large-scale numerical experiments. Based in Colombia, he brings a steady mix of academic rigor and practical engineering to computational physics challenges.
