An excellent opportunity to use your software development skills in a world-class research institute environment is now open for a graduate developer or a developer with equivalent experience. In this role, you will join a small team of developers and a bioinformatics apprentice.

We work flexibly to develop and maintain long term relationships with our laboratory partners, who create the demand for new software to support a range of tools in cellular technologies. Some of our code can be viewed on our GitHub repository.

Our development environment is hosted on Ubuntu Linux, implementing a full-stack web development toolchain. Legacy systems are implemented in Perl and you would be expected to assist in maintaining these applications. New applications are smaller and intended to interact with our existing systems and other systems in the Cellular Operations Division using REST APIs and other relevant techniques. We program in a mix of Perl, Python, JavaScript and Go with some legacy code written in C++.

There is ample opportunity to explore the contemporary computing environment available at the Sanger Institute, including a Linux compute farm, flexible compute system (hosted by internal cloud infrastructure) providing interested developers with Dev Ops experience. We use advanced GPU devices as well as the usual desktop systems and open source developer tools.

We work in a team-oriented manner taking the best from Agile practices as we deliver and maintain software in short iterations while maintaining frequent conversations with users. We aren’t afraid of rapid change in our tools to keep up with fast-paced evolution of research protocols.

You should expect your essential programming skills to be tested during the interview process. The interview will focus to some extent on discussion of your coding tests.

Essential Skills

• Bachelor’s degree or above in computer related sciences or equivalent experience
• Evidence of competence in a modern scripting language based on C-style syntax using a relational database
• Ability to design and run database queries in SQL
• Full stack Web development
• Ability to deliver a quality product within fixed deadlines
• Ability to prioritise tasks to ensure the right things can be done at the right time
• Highly developed problem-solving skills

Ideal Skills

• Programming in Modern Perl
• Some experience with JavaScript programming
• Experience and understanding of bioinformatics and familiarity with genome data
• Evidence of having successfully created interfaces that link with and enable extraction/reporting/display of data from large, complex databases into a web environment

Other information

To be considered for this position, please include a CV and cover letter, outlining your experience and how you meet the essential criteria for the role.

Closing date: 23 March 2020
