Simon Ward
Scientific analysis and modelling software for the modern world
Scientific software developer with a background in physics and a passion for data analysis. I’m originally from London and based in Copenhagen since 2018. With over a decade of experience, I bring my passion in physics and software development for changing the world around us and making the revelations accessible to both researchers and the public alike through intuitive UIs and engaging presentations.
I’ve been lucky to work on projects implementing front-end, back-end and high performance computing for a variety of physical systems and deploying them to operational facilities. I enjoy finding elegant solutions to complex problems and leading development teams by example.
I’m currently working as a Software Scientist at the European Spallation Source ERIC, tackling the challenges of simulating neutron scattering experiments and finding solutions to optimisation problems.
