Summary
Brie Taylor is a Senior Site Reliability Engineer based in Vancouver with 16 years of engineering experience and six years focused on SRE, building resilient, cost-efficient cloud platforms across domains from low-latency DSP to high-throughput genomics and geospatial processing. She architected the Serratus cloud pipeline that scaled to ~22,500 vCPUs and drove a nearly tenfold increase in known RNA virus species by radically reducing alignment costs, demonstrating a rare blend of scientific impact and operational rigor. At Parallel Domain and Raydiant she has driven data-pipeline and platform reliability work, while earlier roles honed her skills in cluster automation, monitoring, and performance tuning across Linux, CUDA, and distributed filesystems. Comfortable both writing custom schedulers and choosing infrastructure tooling (Terraform, Docker, Packer), she combines hands-on systems engineering with a strong track record of enabling reproducible, open-source workflows for research and production.
