My career has encompassed both laboratory and software development roles, giving me a thorough understanding of the genomics pipeline from end to end.
The Genome Surveillance Unit is a multi-talented team including developers, engineers, QA testers, product managers and more. We deliver the digital systems and infrastructure used in the global effort to track the genomic evolution of COVID-19 and malaria agents.
