Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolPhil Brooks is a product leader who combines a PhD in Comparative Medicine with 10+ years building AI-powered platforms that accelerate scientific decision-making across research and drug development. At Genentech he directs product for foundational research platforms—spanning data movement, compute, and developer experience—and now leads an AI-driven Target Qualification Platform that integrates bioinformatics, foundation models, and agentic workflows. He has a track record of modernizing legacy systems, scaling teams and enterprise platforms (including a $12M+ data and compute portfolio), and operationalizing agentic and LLM-based research at scale. Prior roles at Ancestry, 10x Genomics and Seven Bridges show deep domain expertise in genomics pipelines, customer-facing bioinformatics, and cloud-native infrastructure. He’s notable for translating complex scientific workflows into developer-friendly APIs and metrics-driven roadmaps that cut planning overhead and cycle time. Based in South San Francisco, he’s equally energized by building high-impact engineering cultures and by hands-on work connecting data, models, and real-world evidence for better early-stage decisions.
