Senior🎓
Top SchoolJoshua Dawes is a Senior Engineering Manager at STFC who leads an eight-person team while overseeing DevOps and infrastructure projects across Kubernetes, OpenStack and observability tooling. With a PhD from CERN and the University of Manchester and roughly a decade in R&D, he has a strong track record of turning research into production-grade DevOps tooling for Python services. At CERN and SnT he built runtime verification and performance-analysis frameworks that were integrated into critical workflows and revealed tangible performance gains. He has led multi-partner Horizon 2020 efforts, delivered early integration of tools for a major avionics vendor, and continues to guide their adoption in industry. Joshua combines hands-on engineering (Python, CI/CD, Docker, PostgreSQL) with people leadership, conference organisation and mentoring of PhD and MSc candidates. An uncommon strength is his ability to embed formal verification ideas into pragmatic DevOps pipelines that scale beyond academia into commercial environments.
