Senior🎓
Top SchoolAndrew Gross is a Field Service Engineer based in Oakland with nine years of hands-on experience at the intersection of robotics, bioengineering, and data science. He installs and maintains high-throughput automated liquid handling systems for Agilent while drawing on prior roles as a lab manager and senior researcher where he combined bioinformatics (R/Python, RNA-seq, GSEA) with bespoke hardware design and fabrication. Andrew has built soft-materials 3D bioprinters, perfusion and microbioreactor systems, and custom electronics for optogenetic stimulation, demonstrating rare fluency across mechatronics, cell culture, and computational analysis. He has published original research from deep-sea microbial sampling and developed programs for transcriptome “fingerprinting,” highlighting an experimental-to-software pipeline mindset. Comfortable on the repair bench, in the lab, or at a high-performance computing cluster, he brings practical problem-solving and a maker’s resourcefulness to complex life-science automation challenges.
