Pádraic Calpin is a software engineer with 11 years of experience who blends deep academic rigor—a PhD in Quantum Computing from UCL—with hands-on backend and cloud infrastructure work. He has spent the bulk of his career building and modernising single-tenant SaaS and IoT platforms at Zensor, owning AWS infrastructure as code, CI/CD, and core backend services in Python and Docker. His background in theoretical physics and research secondments at IBM give him a strong foundation in complex algorithmic thinking and simulation, which he applies to data engineering and operational reliability. Now a Member of Technical Staff at Iceberg Quantum, he continues to operate at the intersection of quantum research and production-grade engineering. Colleagues rely on him to bridge hardware, data science and software teams—an unusual mix that accelerates deployment of analytics-driven industrial monitoring. Outside of work he self-identifies as a “dork,” signalling a curious, hands-on approach to learning and problem solving.
