Work Experience
March 2024 — Present
OMGenomics LabsCo-founder
Building genomics software that is a joy to use.
January 2022 — March 2024 (2 years)
Chan Zuckerberg InitiativeStaff Software Engineer (March 2024) • Senior Software Engineer (January 2022)
Built metagenomics analysis tools on CZ ID. Improved heatmap front-end rendering time by 10X. Led effort to improve large uploads by surfacing data quality issues before upload begins, which prevented > 3 TBs of invalid data from being uploaded. As a result, we saved users hours of upload time, and reduced cloud storage/compute costs.
March 2018 — June 2021 (3 years)
InvitaeEngineering Manager (September 2020) • Senior Bioinformatics Software Engineer (March 2018)
Built suite of internal software tools for reviewing clinical genomics data, monitoring lab health/stuck samples, and handling terabytes of sequencing data daily. Improved team's on-call experience by automating away recurring high-priority issues.
March 2017 — March 2018 (1 year)
GenapSysSenior Bioinformatics Software Engineer
Developed genomics app store for new sequencing technology. Improved basecalling runtime by 6X and RAM usage by 3X.
March 2016 — March 2017 (1 year)
FluidigmBioinformatics Scientist II, Software
Built a collaborative cloud platform for single-cell RNA-seq analysis and visualization. Reduced cloud costs and runtime by 30X.
Education
