Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolWilliam Alexander is a data engineer and computational biologist with a decade of experience building data pipelines, cloud infrastructure, and multi-omic analysis workflows for proteomics and transcriptomics. With an M.S. in Computer Science from Tufts and a background at Dana‑Farber and Kernal Biologics, he blends AI-trained software skills with deep domain expertise in LC‑MS proteomics (DDA/DIA), PTM detection, and RNA‑seq. He has authored tools and papers used by mass‑spec researchers and has a track record of turning complex biological measurement problems into reproducible analytics and visualizations. Now applying those skills beyond the bench, he currently drives production fare-data platforms at MBTA while remaining available for bioinformatics and data‑science consulting. An early habit of combining liberal-arts curiosity with rigorous engineering explains his ability to translate wet‑lab questions into scalable, auditable computational solutions.
