Three Js Remote Jobs in Seattle, WA (NOW HIRING)

The mission of Allen Institute for Cell Science is to develop a comprehensive and holistic approach to measure, describe, and model cell states and their dynamic changes over time. Our ultimate goal is to uncover the fundamental principles of multiscale, multicellular morphogenesis, including how groups of cells organize and achieve collective behaviors essential for life. Our approach encompasses multi-modal data collection including live 3D timelapse imaging, data analysis, theory, and predictions to understand cell states and cell state transitions in human induced pluripotent stem cell models. As a division within the Allen Institute, the Allen Institute for Cell Science uses a team-oriented approach, focusing on accelerating foundational research, developing standards and models, and cultivating new ideas to make a transformational impact on science.

We are searching for a talented and enthusiastic developer to build Web-based and Python tools for processing and visualizing large scale 5D biological imaging data. The ideal candidate enjoys learning new tools and techniques while remaining diligent and detail oriented. This engineer will receive technical guidance and enjoy professional growth opportunities in a supportive environment. As a member of our close, collaborative team, you will have the freedom to contribute to as much of our code and design processes as you would like, based on your interests and skills.

At the Allen Institute, we believe that science is for everyone – and should be open to everyone. We are dedicated to combating biases and reducing barriers to STEM careers more broadly. We also believe that science is better when it includes different perspectives and voices. We strive to make the Allen Institute a place where everyone feels like they belong and are empowered to do their best work in a supportive environment.

We are an equal-opportunity employer and strongly encourage people from all backgrounds to apply for our open positions.
