Boston, Massachusetts, United States
Summary
ð€
Seniorð
Top SchoolTimothy Tickle is a Head of Scientific Partnerships at the Broad Institute with 12 years of experience uniting data science and software engineering to accelerate genomics and metagenomics research. He builds cross-sector partnerships, defines cloud-native solutions and funding strategies, and steers large-scale projects from proposal to delivery while serving as PI on funded initiatives. Technically grounded as a former senior software engineer and product manager, he designed the Single Cell Portal, developed scalable NGS and single-cell analysis pipelines, and translated research methods into production cloud workflows. His background spans metagenomics, population and cancer RNA-Seq (variant calling, fusion detection), and sparse high-dimensional microbial biomarker discovery. Based in Boston, he pairs hands-on computational expertise with grant-writing and stakeholder risk management to align platform capabilities with scientific needs. A former instructor and postdoc, he brings uncommon fluency across wet-lab protocols, statistical methods, and production software practices.
