Job description

About the Programme:

The Sanger Institute, along with other partners, has launched the Darwin Tree of Life project to provide high-quality genome assemblies for all eukaryotic species in the Atlantic Archipelago of Britain and Ireland. This project will significantly contribute to the goals of the global Earth Biogenome Project, fundamentally changing scientific knowledge of evolution and interactions among millions of the planet’s organisms.

About the Team:

We are building a software development team who will design, build, install and maintain a series of high throughput pipelines for genome assembly and analysis. These pipelines will sit at the heart of the Tree of Life programme and be used extensively by the Sanger Institute and other scientists.

 About the Role:

We are seeking both a Senior Software Developer to contribute to building and optimising the computational infrastructure required to scale genome assembly within this project, streamlining the processing of terabytes of raw data. This will build on Sanger's world-class computational resources, including an OpenStack private cloud environment, a 15,000+ core computational cluster and many petabytes of high-speed distributed file systems and object stores.

 About You:

Team members will be expected to work independently at a technical level, while collaborating closely with colleagues on systems development, and to be comfortable communicating directly with scientific researchers regarding analysis requirements. Recent graduates are also encouraged to apply, although it is strongly desirable that any candidate has substantial development experience outside of coursework (e.g. work experience, participation in open source projects). Bioinformatic/biological knowledge is not essential for this role, but an interest in the science on campus and desire to learn bioinformatic concepts is important.

Essential Skills

  •  Experience in software development, preferably in a scientific environment
  • Knowledge of core computer science concepts and practices 
  • Capable of quickly learning and using the most suitable programming language for the job, including both interpreted and compiled languages 
  • Experience with Git and GitHub 
  • Expert knowledge of unix based operating systems, libraries, and tools 
  • Excellent communication and presentation skills, motivation and attention to detail
  • Experience of working in collaboration with internal and external stakeholders

Ideal Skills

  • Experience in bioinformatics analysis and tools 
  • Experience with relational and non-relational databases 
  • Experience with high performance computing environments (e.g. LSF or Slurm) 
  • Knowledge of virtualization/containerisation technologies (Docker, Singularity) 
  • Knowledge (or experience) of Cloud environments (OpenStack, GCP, AWS) and workflow languages (CWL, NextFlow, Snakemake) 
  • Familiarity with Cloud technologies (e.g. Terraform, Ansible, Kubernetes, GitHub CI) 
  • Experience with high performance computing environments (e.g. LSF or Slurm)

Other information

Closing Date: 02/04/20

Please apply with your CV and cover letter.

Job description

Our Site Reliability Engineers are the primary interface between Yelp’s developers and production infrastructure. No matter how many times we get searched, scraped, scanned, spammed, pinged, paged, or queried, we gotta keep our cool - and keep the site running smoothly. 

We work in both the dev and systems worlds, implementing key parts of the core architecture and supporting devs as they try to do the same. We get to tackle interesting challenges that you can only find at the kind of scale that serves over 100 million users per month. 

With us, you'll build monitoring and alerting systems to support site stability and performance. You'll proactively scale our AWS infrastructure to meet an ever-increasing demand. You'll make sure that when something goes bump in the night, someone hears it. In short, you'll play a key role in keeping Yelp fast, available, and growing, connecting users to great local businesses.

Skills & Requirements

What You Will Do:

  • Work closely with developers in supporting new features and services
  • Build tools to monitor site stability and performance
  • Help scale our AWS-based infrastructure (no racking servers or swapping hard drives here!)
  • Work with our open source platform as a service, PaaSTA
  • Troubleshoot site issues using industry-leading tools like Splunk and SignalFX
  • Automate everything with Puppet, Git, Jenkins, and Terraform
  • Develop custom tools when off-the-shelf solutions don’t work at our scale and contribute upstream to open source projects
  • Design new systems, tests, and procedures
  • Participate in light on-call rotations - we have geographically distributed SRE teams for follow-the-sun support, which means no 2:00 AM pages!

What We Are Looking For:

  • Mastery of Linux (we use Ubuntu)
  • Command of your favourite modern programming language: Python, Ruby, Go, Rust, Java, C++, etc.
  • Solid understanding of fundamental technologies like TCP/IP, HTTP, and DNS
  • Knowledge of best practices related to security, performance, and disaster recovery
  • Experience with web server configuration (Apache/Nginx/HAproxy), monitoring, trending, network design, and high availability
  • Strong scripting and automation skills
  • Expertise in Configuration Management (Puppet/Ansible/Chef/etc.)
  • Experience with public cloud platforms (we use AWS, but Azure/GCP are fine) and related tooling (Terraform, etc.)
  • Experience with Docker or other container technologies
  • Excellent communication and documentation skills

What We Offer:

  • Full responsibility for projects from day one, an awesome team, and a dynamic work environment
  • Competitive salary with equity in the company, a pension scheme, and an optional employee stock purchase program
  • Private health insurance, including dental and vision
  • Flexible working hours and meeting-free Thursdays
  • Regular 2-day Hackathons and weekly learning groups, always with interesting topics
  • Opportunities to participate in events and conferences throughout Europe
  • Public transportation season ticket loan and £50 per month toward any exercise of your choice
  • Monthly personal development allowance
  • Central location, a fully stocked kitchen, adjustable sitting/standing desks, quarterly offsites, happy hours, and more!
