Tiago Antao

Tiago Rodrigues Antão has a BEng in Informatics and a PhD in bioinformatics. He currently works in the biotech field. Tiago uses Python with all its libraries to perform scientific computing and data engineering tasks. More often than not, he also uses low-level programming languages such as C and Rust to optimize critical parts of algorithms. He currently develops on an infrastructure based on Amazon AWS, but for most of his career, he used on-premises computing and scientific clusters.

In addition to working in the industry, his experience with the academic side of scientific computing includes two data analysis post-docs at Cambridge University and Oxford University. As a research scientist at the University of Montana, he created, from scratch, the entire scientific computing infrastructure for the analysis of biological data.
