Background

About Paul Higgins

As a software engineer at Propylon, I develop cutting-edge document management solutions for highly-regulated industries. I focus on Python development for data-processing pipelines and web-app back-ends. An area of particular interest is advanced data-modelling and management concepts within complex web-services ecosystems. I would like to concentrate on the intersection between language models, machine learning, and content management. My academic background is in physics, having completed an astrophysics degree at the University of California at Berkeley and a PhD in solar astrophysics at Trinity College Dublin. As a postdoctoral researcher I pursued my own research on solar eruptions at Lockheed Martin, California and Trinity College Dublin. I also completed a Postgraduate Certificate in Data Science, with a distinction, from TU Dublin.
