Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolEd Trager is a Senior Data Steward and seasoned software engineer based in Ann Arbor with nearly two decades of experience building tools across healthcare, bioinformatics, and academia. He blends practical software development with data stewardship at ArborMetrix while bringing internationalization and bioinformatics expertise from his work at the University of Michigan Health System. A mentor who elevates junior engineers and teams, he pairs technical depth with broad intellectual interests—from Chinese language and forest ecology to graphic design and woodworking—that inform thoughtful, interdisciplinary problem solving. Off the clock he’s as comfortable on pond hockey rinks in Michigan winters as he is translating cultural and linguistic nuance into robust software solutions.
