About

Currently leading the engineering team at orchidhealth.com, building the world’s first whole genome embryo screening.

Until December 2022 I led the deidentified matching and data pipeline teams at Datavant. We worked to connect the world’s medical data, privately and securely, to speed up medical research and drug development.

Until June 2020 I was a co-founder at CloudWright, a low-code app to help non-engineers build internal tools, fast.

Until July 2019 I was a Software Engineer at LiveRamp, where I spent most of my time

• Migrating LiveRamp’s Hadoop infrastructure (2,500 instances) to GCP
• Using Hadoop, Cascading, and a couple other big-data buzzwords to build efficient, cost-effective, high throughput data workflows.
• Leading the Big Data Infrastructure team, where we built tools to help other developers build peta-scale data applications.
• Contributing to the engineering blog and open-source projects.

I try to stay involved in open-source projects, and have a few of my own on Github.

My email is bpodgursky@gmail.com, and I’m on twitter and GitHub.
