Summary
Jared Streich is an Artificial Intelligence Engineer and PhD-trained computational biologist who blends 13+ years of hands-on wet-lab and field research with production software development for robotics, high-performance computing, and AI/ML. He designs C# automation for scientific instruments and builds R/Python prototypes that scale to big-data genomics and geospatial models, having led multi-hundred‑thousand dollar projects and teams at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. His work spans variant calling, time-series GWAS, bacterial trait mapping (patented), and deploying phenotyping systems that capture tightly time-stamped, multi-omics data for ecological and agricultural insight. Comfortable from molecular labs to "the largest computers on Earth," he pairs domain depth in plant biology and invasion genetics with practical expertise in parallelization, Bash/AWK, and image-based object detection. Based in Seattle, he now applies that hybrid skill set at Thermo Fisher to integrate ML-driven perception and automation into medical and lab hardware.
