Reece Hart, PhD — Engineering Leader and Computational Biologist

I am an engineering leader and scientist with over two decades of experience architecting, building, and operating reliable software systems for research, healthcare, and business -- in large companies (IBM, Genentech), zero-to-one startups (Invitae, MyOme), and open source collaborations (biocommons.org, GA4GH). I have been a CTO, a founder and executive director, and have primary and senior authorship of international standards for representing biological sequence variation. I think strategically, with a bias toward action and incremental value creation. I thrive in startup environments where every day is an opportunity to create enduring value.

During my year-long sabbatical (Sep 2025-Aug 2026), I have remained active in the above areas while volunteering for and contracting with organizations that seek to improve political discourse and engagement.

I am currently available for full-time employment or contracting in scientific software engineering or civic causes.
