Greg Polumbo is a senior software engineer with nearly two decades of experience building web applications and bioinformatics tools, most recently bringing his technical leadership to ForeFlight after a six-year principal role at the Broad Institute. He specializes in scalable, secure web systems and developer-facing standards—driving code quality through reviews, performance optimization, and disciplined engineering practices across Scala, Ruby on Rails, Java, and SQL stacks. Greg has a strong track record translating complex scientific and domain-specific requirements into production-ready platforms for genomic analysis, visualization, and ML-driven workflows. Colleagues describe him as a pragmatic technical lead who mentors teams and enforces best practices while staying hands-on with architecture and code. Outside work he pursues meticulous hobbies—woodworking, watch repair, and aviation—that mirror his attention to detail in engineering.
