Job description

MyOme's mission is to provide clinically actionable genetic information to patients throughout their lives. We combine clinical-grade whole genome sequencing, advanced AI methods for genome interpretation, and seamless digital tools for doctors and patients to order and access results. Our team is composed of seasoned entrepreneurs, scientists, and operators, and we're backed by top-tier investors.

Position Overview:

MyOme is looking for a talented and experienced bioinformatics software engineer to join the team. As a Bioinformatics Software Engineer, you will build scalable, cloud-based pipelines that power genomic and clinical data analysis in a real-world healthcare setting. You will combine strong engineering practices with bioinformatics expertise to develop reliable, production-grade systems that support clinical decision-making and advance precision medicine.

What You'll Do:

  • Build, test, and maintain a suite of robust bioinformatics tools, workflows, and analysis modules.
  • Work in a team to scope, define, and articulate solutions to complex computing and information management challenges at the forefront of modern bioinformatics.
  • Contribute to the architecture and operations of our computing infrastructure.
  • Contribute to the team through code reviews and design discussions
  • Participate in agile development processes, including sprint planning, retrospectives, and continuous improvement
  • Balance quick wins with long-term technical sustainability
  • As a well-rounded engineer, participate in all aspects of the development process and be interested in our mission.

What You'll Need:

  • No specific degree required - if you can do the work well and collaborate with humility, we want to hear from you.
  • 2+ years of experience building and managing bioinformatics workflows (e.g., Nextflow, Snakemake, WDL, CWL).
  • Proven experience optimizing and scaling bioinformatics pipelines for performance and reliability.
  • Proficient in Python, with bonus points for experience in other programming languages.
  • First-hand experience working with bioinformatics tools, databases, and file formats used in sequence analysis.
  • Comfortable with modern development practices - version control, unit testing, CI/CD, and code reviews.
  • Hands-on experience with Linux/Unix and cloud infrastructure (AWS, Docker, Kubernetes, etc.).
  • Thrive in a fast-moving startup - you know when to prototype quickly and when to build production-grade systems.

Location, Compensation, and Benefits:

  • Location: Hybrid role, 2 days a week onsite at our San Francisco, CA office (near Montgomery BART). Occasional travel required for team meetings.
  • Compensation: Annual base salary range of $130,000 - $160,000, based on experience.

  • 401K
  • Unlimited PTO
  • Professional development opportunities
  • Company-sponsored off-sites and team meals during in-person meetings
  • Direct access to company leadership and the opportunity for career growth

Diversity, Inclusion, and Equal Opportunity:
MyOme values diversity in all forms. We believe that diverse perspectives drive better science and better patient outcomes. We are an Equal Opportunity Employer committed to creating an inclusive workplace that empowers every individual.
