About

My name is Charles Laing. I am a software developer living up in the cold north of Edmonton, Alberta.

I completed my Bachelor of Science in Computing Science, with a minor in Biological Sciences in the spring of 2019. Since 2018, I have been working as a software developer/engineer for NOV inc (formerly National Oilwell Varco).

My work history is varied. I completed an internship at BioLargo Water, where I was a research student performing experiments on the removal of organic pollutants from water, with a focus on treating Oil Sands Process Water. During this time, I also began work on a product called “Pasteur”, which was a drag-and-drop data analytics service combined with an Electronic Lab Notebook . This project allowed researchers to input their notes, perform analysis, and even use machine learning plugins directly within the application.

Following my internship, I worked with the Department of Chemistry, under Dr. Serpe, developing software to monitor and analyze an etalon microarray, which was part of a join research project with Keystone Labs, and Aurora Cannabis.

I am currently in the process of completing a Master’s degree in Cybersecurity with Georgia Tech, however I am taking a break from my studies due to family changes, which included welcoming two happy, bright new children to my family.
