Senior🎓
Top SchoolAbhishek Mitra is a software engineer and PhD-trained computationalist with 11 years of experience building high-performance bioinformatics tools, NGS pipelines, and scalable data storage solutions. He played a key role in the BLESS project—developing statistical pipelines and clever hacks to get Illumina HiSeq to sequence low-diversity tags—which later informed CRISPR-Cas9 specificity studies. As a founder of Mitra Technology Labs he extended his skills into software-defined radio, GNSS cybersecurity and HPC, combining systems-level C/C++ programming with domain-specific genomics analytics. Comfortable across Linux, R, TensorFlow and terabyte-scale storage, he bridges wet-lab collaboration and production software to turn complex experimental data into reproducible results. Notably, his background spans FPGA acceleration research through to hands-on sequencing chemistry troubleshooting, reflecting a rare mix of hardware, algorithmic and bioinformatics depth.
