Naeem is a research software engineer member of Research Software Engineering (RSE) at the FAS Research Computing (FASRC) department. He designs, builds and optimizes software applications for researchers across Harvard University. Naeem has a superior mathematical and numerical analysis background and has developed, documented, debugged, extended, and refactored numerous scientific software applications for research groups, helping them successfully carry out their funded research projects. Before joining FASRC, Naeem conducted research on large-scale ground motion simulations.
Having an interdisciplinary educational background in Engineering, Applied Science, and Computer Science, he values the importance of good software engineering practices in reliable and reproducible scientific research.
In his free time, Naeem enjoys reading, running, cooking, and watching documentaries.
