CoreBiome | Full-stack Software Engineers | Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN | Full-Time | ONSITE or REMOTE | https://corebiome.com Our company specializes in fast, reliable microbiome analysis using cutting-edge genomics and informatics. Our unit ensures quick, accurate, and reproducible data analysis in a secure environment for ever-increasing dynamic workloads. By facilitating fast and easy data access for our clients, we expedite advances in scientific knowledge. You would be working in a few key areas of our code base: - Building internal tools to help automate and record laboratory processes - Building the API that unifies different portions of our pipeline, internal tools, and customer portal. This is currently written in Flask. - Optimizing the pipeline for speed and reproducibility. The pipeline is comprised of Python, R, Nextflow, optimized executables and tools, with pytest in CircleCI and Jenkins for testing. - Ensuring data security. Genomic data is personal data, so security is a top concern with regulatory requirements. Data is stored in S3, with some metadata in PostgreSQL and MongoDB databases. Interested?
