Summary
Patrick O'dacre is a founder and software engineer with 11 years building reliability- and compliance-focused systems for regulated industries, currently shipping Lab Trace, a self-serve LIMS for small ISO 17025-accredited labs that replaces fragile Excel/email workflows with audit-ready sample tracking and automated Certificates of Analysis. He combines hands-on backend and infrastructure expertise (Go, Rust, Laravel/PHP, PostgreSQL, NATS) with applied security and confidentiality experience—ranging from confidential computing for self-custody finance to multi-continent cybercrime investigation platforms. Patrick has repeatedly delivered full-stack, production systems that run without large DevOps teams, and he designs pragmatic RBAC and immutable audit trails that meet regulatory expectations like 21 CFR Part 11. Comfortable as both architect and implementer, he’s built sensor telemetry, water-quality compliance platforms, and real-time transaction coordination—often for organizations operating in hostile or constrained environments.
