  • Domain Expertise: Strong background in microbial ecology or related fields, with a distinct preference for expertise in microbial genomics.
  • Technical Tools: Significant, hands-on experience with Nextflow and Docker is critical for pipeline development. Proficiency with standard bioinformatics tooling (Python, Linux, Git) is required.
  • Sequencing Data: Hands-on work with Illumina or Oxford Nanopore sequencing platforms.
  • Product Impact: Proven experience building scalable bioinformatics products and clear evidence of delivering impactful, independent projects.
  • Bonus: Contribution of a novel bioinformatics tool or algorithm is highly regarded as a signal of a top-tier candidate.

Ideal Candidate Profile

  • Thrives with high agency and high ownership, leading projects from idea to production.
  • Exhibits strong leadership qualities, initiative, and a clear motivation to advance their career.
  • Is curious about the intersection of biology, algorithms, and software engineering.
  • Gets excited knowing their work directly accelerates the next generation of medicines and biotechnology.
