• Responsible for building and supervising a team of 8 software engineers and bioinformaticians tasked with developing genome assembly algorithms for various Complete Genomics products (whole genome sequencing, exome sequencing, cancer sequencing, etc.).• Provide bioinformatics support to the assembly team.• Set priorities in consultation with product.

Mountain View, CA

• Developed data quality management protocols in preparation for a CLIA lab application.
• Exploration of large, next-generation sequencing datasets for the purpose of identifying areas where technology and algorithms are in need of improvement.
• Responsible for analysis of experimental data to support the development of Complete Genomics technology.
• Carried out comparisons of Complete Genomics assemblies to external genotypes (e.g. HapMap, dbSNP, 1000 Genomes) and sequencing technologies.

• Created a flexible data analysis pipeline that allows experimental scientists to perform a wide variety of analyses on microarray, sequencing, and other genomic data.

• Developed Bayesian methods for automated prediction of function from protein structures
