Summary
Yong H is an experienced software engineer and architect with a decade-long focus on high-performance distributed computing for experimental physics, currently designing and operating control systems at Brookhaven National Laboratory. Trained in electrical engineering and holding a PhD in experimental physics, he blends deep domain knowledge of particle accelerators with hands-on expertise in C, C++, Python, Java, and real-time OS environments like vxWorks and RTEMS. He has led full lifecycle engineering for NSLS-II controls—from specification and driver development to commissioning and long-term operation—authoring hundreds of thousands of lines of production code and numerous EPICS drivers. Based in the New York City area, he pairs rigorous research instincts from academia with pragmatic software craftsmanship, and is unabashedly proud to be a programmer who thrives on solving complex, low-level distributed systems problems.
