Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJonathan Wright is a bioinformatician with nine years of experience focused on genomics and genome assembly, currently applying his skills at the Earlham Institute. He designs and implements robust NGS pipelines and scales analyses on Linux-based HPC environments using Python and sound software engineering practices. His PhD in Computational Biology underpins a strong research-first approach to solving complex genomic problems while maintaining production-ready code and version control discipline. Comfortable translating between wet-lab needs and computational solutions, he routinely handles large-scale assembly workflows and performance tuning. Based in Norwich, he blends academic rigor with practical pipeline engineering, enabling reproducible, high-throughput genomics. Colleagues describe him as the kind of practitioner who pairs deep domain knowledge with pragmatic software craftsmanship to move projects from data to discovery.
