Welcome
I'm a veteran software engineer with some 30+ experience. Employed at ETH Zurich, Switzerland's Federal Institute of Technology, where my team of research software engineers develop solutions for various scientific projects.
If you're at ETH and your group needs software, data management or advice, please contact me there. I also do private work, so if you're not at ETH and would like to discuss a software need, please send do me an email at matt@mattbaker.ch.
Why this blog? Scientists and researchers have particular IT needs, which sometimes overlap with the general IT community but often do not. If you're in this category, the posts in this blog might be helpful.
