Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolRob L is a Genomics Engineering Lead with nine years of experience applying cloud-native engineering and data platform practices to population-scale genomic storage and analysis. At Bayer Crop Science he leads teams building domain-centric APIs and serverless microservices on Kubernetes and Google Cloud, using Go to deliver high-performance, cost-conscious genomics infrastructure. His background spans hands-on genomics tooling and big-data systems from Washington University to Monsanto, blending algorithmic bioinformatics, scalable storage (HBase/VCF/BAM), and modern devops. He champions "industrial genomics"—small, disciplined teams leveraging infrastructure-as-code to solve the largest, highest-impact problems in R&D. An early career mix of robotics/automation and C++/Java algorithm work gives him a practical systems perspective that informs both platform design and biological data workflows.
