I produce scientific software (R/C++ packages) for data analysis in a scalable and reproducible way. Skilled in object oriented programming (OOP), high performance computing (HPC), data structures, algorithm development, statistics, mathematics, and my favourite visualisations of all kinds (ggplot2, 3D spatial, geospatial, heatmaps, PCA).Tech stack: R programming, C++, SHELL/BASH, Python, JavaScript, Excel, Powerpoint.- Created a statistical analysis framework; applied to building 3 different analysis pipelines: Metabolomics, Proteomics, and Expression. - Object oriented (OOP) programming in R; S4 classes and methods, complex data structures. - High performance computing (HPC), and algorithm design for processing very big datasets (over 5 million rows). - Heavy use of data.table, and future frameworks for scalable parallel computing on local machines and super computer clusters. - Automated full and rich Powerpoint presentations, including: high resolution ggplots, heatmaps, volcano plots, principal component analysis (PCA), tables and experiment summaries. - Pipeline returns complex statistical results object in memory (all plots customisable), high resolution plots, statistical reports.- Collaboration/communication with colleague scientists; I have experience teaching and providing a complex service to help others understand computational/statistical methods/analysis and the insights insights produced.- R package production: metabolite.matcher, derecksLabTools.- Expert in visualisations (ggplot2): heatmaps, PCA plots, 3D plots, hex bin, geospatial analysis.- Statistical analysis, statistical tests, experimental design.https://github.com/CoarfaBCM/derecksLabTools(Remote)
