Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSimon Uribe is a seasoned leader in clinical informatics and bioinformatics with 11 years of experience building and scaling teams that deliver high-throughput genomic testing and diagnostic products. He currently leads a 12-person Clinical Informatics organization driving OKRs, automation, and cross-functional launches across hereditary cancer, rare disease, RNA, and exome assays while maintaining rigorous SLAs. A hands-on manager and former bioinformatics scientist, he combines Python, SQL, and pipeline engineering expertise with operational rigor—having driven policy changes that cut turnaround times by weeks and saved over $1M in operational costs. He also founded and grew a 200+ member Latinx ERG, reflecting a commitment to inclusion and people-first leadership. Based in Boise, Simon blends deep academic training in phylogenomics and evolutionary biology (PhD) with production-scale NGS operations, making him equally comfortable debating tree topology or tuning a variant-calling pipeline.
