Dr. Miles is trained as a software engineer and physical geographer. His Ph.D. research focused on ecohydrology modeling in urbanized and forested watersheds; this work included tools to support reproducible ingest and transformation geospatial data, as well as model calibration and uncertainty estimation using HPC resources. He has current and prior experience in software engineering, Internet of Things (IoT), environmental monitoring, geospatial data storage and analysis, and managing SAFe Agile teams. His professional interests include developing workflows for reproducible analyses.

Dr. Miles is currently focused on translating research codes and algorithms into deployable software artifacts supported by robust documentation, automated testing, continuous integration and deployment, observability, fault tolerance, and scalability.
