Bioanalytics Automation Intern — Zoetis, Fort Collins
- Automated the onsite antibody chain pairing workflow with a Python worklist generator and a custom Hamilton VENUS method, removing 4+ hours/week of manual pipetting and reducing the error rate to zero.
- Created internal RESTful APIs with FastAPI to move data between applications, with LDAP-based user authorization to protect sensitive data.
- Built a CI/CD pipeline that syncs code to an HPC server and rebuilds Docker containers on merge to main, reducing deployment from four manual steps to zero and removing the need for shared service-account access.
- Shipped internal React/TypeScript tools now in daily use by 10+ scientists, including a plate map editor for experiment design and a data lookup portal with unified querying across thousands of laboratory results.
- Analyzed peptide sequence datasets to identify binding motifs and developed Python tools to find peptides with the highest chance of binding.
- Helped analyze 3000+ monoclonal antibody sequences with machine learning models to predict which mAbs are most likely to express well.
