Brendan Bouffler has decades of experience in the tech industry, building large-scale HPC systems for R&D organizations globally - working in North America, Asia, and Europe.
After leading the HPC business in Asia for a hardware maker, Brendan joined Amazon in 2014 when it became clear to him that cloud would become the exceptional computing tool the global R&D community needed to bring forward the discoveries that would change the world for us all.
He’s a board member for the High Performance Software Foundation (HPSF), supporting open-source projects which ensure democratic access to critical datasets, tools, and techniques.
He holds a degree in Physics and an interest in testing several of its laws as they apply to bicycles. This has frequently resulted in hospitalization. He is based in London.
