Summary
Peter Barker is a seasoned software leader with 11 years of experience building high-impact web platforms and developer tools, currently managing Core Software at 10x Genomics. He leads cross-functional teams through full lifecycle delivery of TypeScript/React front-ends, Go/Python services, and AWS-hosted systems that support scientific R&D and customer-facing products.
