Summary
🤩
Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolJames Clune is an independent software developer and seasoned engineer with over 25 years of experience spanning systems programming, machine learning, distributed systems, and functional programming. He has built production-grade infrastructure for high-scale trading at Jane Street and for genomics-driven cancer detection at GRAIL, where he engineered multi-petabyte archival systems and contamination-detection software for ML workflows. Comfortable across low-level tooling and higher-level ML stacks, he has shipped OCaml/C bindings, GPU training pipelines, and data-location-aware schedulers that powered 15,000-core clusters. A Ph.D. in computer science from UCLA and early work on static analysis and runtime tools inform his emphasis on correctness and automation. Based in North Bend, WA, he thrives on cross-disciplinary collaboration—especially at the intersection of bioinformatics and machine learning—and recently returned to indie game development as an independent creator.
