Seniorš
Top SchoolPatrick Coleman is a Senior Staff Software Engineer with 11 years of experience combining large-scale web and API engineering at Google with domain-focused data and ML pipeline work in biotech. He led data engineering at BenchSci, turning NLP research and experimental R&D into production-grade GCP/Apache Beam/BigQuery pipelines, and now applies that expertise to Google Cloud Generative AI. His background in neuroscience and hands-on lab work gives him uncommon fluency in both experimental data collection (two-photon microscopy and automated analysis) and production software, enabling clearer requirements and more reliable data products. Comfortable across front-end, backend, and SRE roles, he has a track record of shipping rewrites and maintaining critical UIs at scale. Colleagues rely on him to translate messy scientific problems into robust, scalable engineering solutions.
