Summary
Aaron Barlow is an HPC software engineer with 11 years of experience building scalable, high-throughput systems and full-stack services, currently driving production tooling at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. He has shipped large-impact projects—deploying the myOLCF self-service app that handles 25,000+ monthly requests, implementing key features for ITAR/HIPAA workloads, and building an API capable of ingesting 124k job records/sec/core for a Smart Facility Dashboard. His background spans machine learning, backend and frontend work, and automation—from a Bank of America NER model that demonstrated 96.2% accuracy and projected multimillion-dollar savings to canonical Ember.js microservices and data-integrity tooling. Aaron combines solid academic performance in computer science with a penchant for mentoring and continuous learning, often tackling the most operationally critical pieces of a stack. He is pragmatic about performance and compliance constraints, and quietly excels at turning complex research and regulatory requirements into production-ready systems.
