Summary
Raymond Lim is a Bioinformatics Software Engineer V with 13 years of experience building scalable, production-grade platforms that bridge genomics research and clinical workflows. He designs and operates large-scale data pipelines (Nextflow, WDL, Snakemake) and cloud-first infrastructure across AWS, Azure, and GCP, including training foundation LLMs and deploying embeddings-driven slide search systems. At Memorial Sloan Kettering he scaled feature extraction across hundreds of thousands of pathology slides, architected fair compute allocation, and instituted CI/CD and testing best practices while mentoring junior engineers. Previously he led production sequencing dashboards and automated QC pipelines at Sema4, migrating critical infrastructure from on-prem to cloud. Raymond pairs deep domain knowledge in NGS and pathology with pragmatic engineering—optimizing both HPC and cloud workflows to turn complex scientific needs into reliable tools. Based in Dublin, California, he combines a strong academic background (MSc Bioinformatics) with hands-on experience delivering reproducible, high-throughput life-sciences software.
