Othram | Senior Software Engineer | The Woodlands (Houston), TX | Onsite | https://othram.com We are on a mission to digitize the world's DNA evidence so that we can identify victims, find missing persons, and reveal perpetrators of crimes. Othram operates at the intersection of molecular biology, population genetics, and bioinformatics. Bridging 20th-century population genetics and 21st-century data science, we are the first and only forensic laboratory to vertically integrate a DNA test and human ID solution, that can identify victims, find missing persons, and reveal perpetrators of crimes. Our team of scientists, lab technicians, and software engineers works to solve cold cases and crimes with our cutting edge forensic DNA sequencing lab. We’re building automated tools process DNA and genealogical information to determine identity from DNA, and to automate and optimize other parts of the business. As we’re scaling up, we’re looking for more people to help the software team. Currently hiring for multiple roles: - Software engineer: website backends, data processing pipelines, analysis software, and business process automation. - Data scientist: collect, analyze, and visualize data ranging from business analytics and customer interactions to human genetics and genealogy. Looking for a strong engineering background and significant Python experience. Experience with bioinformatics is a plus, but not required.
