Gert Wohlgemuth is a senior software architect and lead developer with over 17 years of hands-on experience building distributed, data-intensive systems—now consulting with a focus on AWS serverless, Java/Scala/Python, and Spring Boot. At UC Davis he led teams that transformed GCMS and metabolomics pipelines into scalable, open-source platforms and managed HPC clusters and production data workflows. His work bridges research and production: he designs domain-specific languages and automated annotation systems for complex scientific experiments while keeping codebases maintainable and well-tested. An active open-source contributor, he has improved crypto trading tooling and technical indicators for the widely used Freqtrade project and strengthened testing for PyCUDA’s GPU arrays. Beyond engineering, he publishes technical findings and mentors cross-functional teams, pairing deep domain knowledge in chem-informatics with practical system design. Colleagues rely on him for pragmatic architecture decisions that tame large-scale experimental datasets into actionable, reproducible software.
