Lauren Dukes is a Senior Software Engineer with eight years of experience building user-centered, high-impact products across healthcare and large-scale search systems, now at Google. She blends product, UX, and engineering expertise to deliver practical solutions in change-averse environments—most notably leading MedTimeLine, an open-source clinical timeline integrated with Boston Children's Hospital. Comfortable coordinating cross-functional workstreams, she has designed data ingestion and transformation pipelines for FHIR/EHR data, implemented scheduling optimization prototypes for nursing staff, and helped define latency SLOs for Search. Lauren pairs technical craft with strong change management and community leadership, repeatedly serving as a site lead for large volunteer initiatives and mentoring new engineers. Her background (PhD-level training) and hands-on habit of translating clinician and executive needs into testable, adoptable features make her especially effective at driving ethical, equity-minded product adoption.
