Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolTora Sirkka is a software engineer with a Master’s in Biotechnology and nine years of experience bridging industrial R&D and backend engineering to accelerate experimental workflows. She has a proven track record of using Python, SQL, and AWS services to reduce experiment cycle time, enable previously infeasible tests, and extract richer insights from lab data. At Corning she moved prototypes to production as a technical lead and TPM, and more recently she has been sharpening backend skills at Comcast and Bloomberg. Comfortable across the stack—React frontends, PostgreSQL/Neo4j, data tooling like Pandas and Jupyter—she combines hands-on coding with cross-functional communication and project leadership. Notably, her background in experimental design and biotech gives her a unique perspective on building data-driven tools that directly impact scientific throughput and product decisions.
