Biography

James Foucar is currently an employee of Sandia National Labs working as a software developer. He has a wide variety of experience in the computing field: he spent time in academia, worked for many years as an intern at Sandia, and worked as a full-time developer at Sandia on multiple teams. He has experience in everything from DevOps to scientific computing.

Currently working as member of the new software engineering (SE) dept, with most of his time being funded by E3SM (climate). The E3SM work is split between SE support, development of ESMCI/CIME (shared climate infrastructure with NCAR), and SCREAM/Eamxx (high resolution, cloud resolving model using C++/Kokkos).
