What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, where I can leverage my bioinformatics expertise to drive impactful projects and contribute to scientific advancements.

I am a Senior Bioinformatics Engineer with a proven track record of transforming fragile research prototypes into robust, reproducible production systems. My expertise lies in developing high-performance pipelines and tools tailored for AAV, CAR-T, and proteomics applications. I thrive on challenges that require innovative solutions and meticulous attention to detail.

Throughout my career, I have successfully designed a high-performance deduplication engine in Rust, achieving a remarkable six-fold speedup over traditional Python implementations. My experience includes developing automation scripts for cloud-based optimization pipelines, enhancing reproducibility and data integrity. I have also restructured Nextflow pipelines to improve scalability and maintainability, ensuring long-term success in bioinformatics projects.

In addition to my technical skills, I am passionate about sharing knowledge and have conducted hands-on training sessions for clients on bioinformatics tools and workflows. I hold a Master’s degree in Bioinformatics and Computational Biology, and I am committed to advancing the field through continuous learning and collaboration.
