Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolMatthew Oldach is a Senior Consultant and experienced bioinformatician with a decade of delivering computational research solutions across academia, government, and consulting. He blends deep domain expertise in genomics and marine ecology with production-grade data engineering skills—R, Python, Docker, Spark, and cloud/HPC—to manage and analyze multi-terabyte studies and harmonize heterogeneous datasets. Highlights include building cloud workflows for coral genetics, an R package (vapoRwave) and a Shiny app (hinuhinu), an ROV image-analysis pipeline, and ML-driven spatial proteomics for oncology. He excels at turning messy, large-scale biological data into reproducible pipelines, documentation and SOPs that enable non-programmers to use complex tools. Comfortable in both hands-on analysis and stakeholder-facing roles, he often bridges wet-lab questions and scalable computational implementation. Based in Edmonton, he brings a rare mix of field experience (reef and ecological work) and production bioinformatics that accelerates translational research.
