Christian Wiwie is a hands-on backend software engineer with 13 years of experience and a PhD in computer science, specializing in data-intensive and genomics-focused systems. He has moved between research and industry—building clustering and time-series tools during his PhD/postdoc and shipping production genomics and variant-calling software at QIAGEN before working on backend systems at TV 2 Denmark. Skilled across Java, Python, R and databases, he combines rigorous algorithm development with practical engineering like testing, CI and documentation. Notably, he has a track record of turning research prototypes (TiCoNE, ClustEval, DiMAna) into usable software and bridging bioinformatics research with production-grade pipelines. Based in Southern Denmark, he brings both academic depth and pragmatic product experience to data-driven backend projects.
