Cyril Matthey-doret is a Senior Data Science Engineer based in Lausanne with nine years of experience turning computational biology research into production-grade data platforms and tools. Trained as a computational biologist (PhD, Sorbonne) and experienced in genomics, he blends deep domain knowledge in omics and Hi-C analysis with software engineering practices like CI/CD, testing, and reproducible pipelines. At the Swiss Data Science Center he builds scalable data science infrastructure and has taught hands-on large-scale data science at EPFL, exposing students to end-to-end pipelines and Spark clusters. He has a track record of shipping analysis toolkits, supervising students, and establishing engineering best practices inside research labs—skills that make him effective at bridging research and production. Notably, his background includes generating a chromosome-level assembly and developing algorithms to detect chromatin structures, highlighting a rare combination of wet-lab problem insight and robust engineering.
