Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolGlen Beane is a Principal Scientific Software Engineer with 11 years of professional experience building full-stack systems, high-performance computing tools, and ML-enabled pipelines for biological research and industrial automation. He has repeatedly returned to The Jackson Laboratory to lead projects that bridge lab workflows and software—shipping video acquisition systems, annotation tools, and ML classifiers that help biologists quantify mouse behavior. Glen also brings cloud-native and production automation experience from VividCloud, where he built GCP-based simulation frameworks and RAG chatbots for HR use cases, and brief AI startup exposure in autonomous vehicles. His technical breadth spans C++, Python, Flask, Qt, SQLAlchemy, Angular, and HPC resource managers, and he has a history of delivering robust, research-grade software such as the Civet pipeline framework. Based in Bar Harbor, Maine, he combines academic rigor (MS Computer Science) with practical engineering, often tackling low-level performance challenges alongside user-facing applications. A less obvious strength is his track record of evolving systems across decades of hardware and platform shifts—porting and optimizing HPC software from clusters to cloud and embedded devices.
