Summary
Chuan-heng Hsiao is a computational biologist with 13 years of experience building scalable software and analytical systems, currently applying those skills at Boston Children's Hospital. Trained in computer science and cognitive science (Harvard, Boston University, NTU), he blends strong engineering discipline with domain-level quantitative thinking to bridge bioinformatics and production software. His background includes designing high‑QPS distributed systems, CI/CD and orchestration tooling, and a rule-based analytics stack at Appier, plus leading a permissioned, crypto‑enabled decentralized social network at Taiwan AILabs. Comfortable across Python, Scala, and systems automation, he favors pragmatic solutions that scale across heterogeneous environments. An engineer who moves between research-driven biology problems and production-grade architectures, he brings a rare mix of academic training and hands-on, distributed-systems experience.
