Cordillera Labs is a software company dedicated to building better tools for researchers. We specialize in bioinformatics software and consulting, helping laboratories and organizations develop custom solutions, optimize workflows, and accelerate scientific discovery.
We believe scientific software should enable researchers to get answers quickly, make it easy to collaborate, and ensure reproducible results. Whether you need a custom analysis pipeline, help scaling your computational infrastructure, or consulting on software architecture for research applications, we bring both technical expertise and scientific understanding to every project.
Cordillera Labs was founded by Alex Fraser, a software developer and bioinformatician based in beautiful British Columbia, Canada. Alex holds a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science and Biology from the University of British Columbia.
His work has focused on metagenomics and the analysis of carbohydrate active enzymes (CAZymes), combining computational approaches with biological insight to solve complex research problems. This unique background in both software engineering and biological sciences allows Cordillera Labs to bridge the gap between research needs and technical solutions.
