*) Managed multiple research projects of varying lengths (weeks to years), including everything from design, development, testing and implementation. *) Acquired, cleaned and transformed raw simulation data (TBs) from various sources with different formats to a unique universal usable set of data about cluster ages (Python, Numpy, SQL, Matplotlib, Pandas) *) Predicted Universe properties using the cleaned data and regression methods *) Led a project to design a new original method to use galaxy cluster data. Improves our Universe comprehension using existing data, at no extra cost. *) Developed a set of 25 simulations of the Universe, generated 100TB of a unique data set which will be used over the next decade to understand fundamentals of the formation of structures (Cloud computing, Linux, Bash, C++)
