Description

We've partnered with a Belfast start-up which helps scientific researchers to design, track and collaborate on their studies. Their software solutions are used by the world’s most innovative drug development teams in therapeutic areas, such as Alzheimer’s and cancer. The goal is to free up their vital time so they can focus on creative problem solving instead of repetitive (and error-prone) activities currently plaguing drug discovery.

Together we're looking for a senior backend developer to join their engineering team, comprised of the Applications Team, the Platform Team, and the Customer Engineering Team. Product modules include DNA editing tools, an electronic lab notebook, sample tracking, workflow design, and more.

What you might work on

• Own projects end-to-end, from initial design, to prototype, to large-scale rollout.
• Design and implement backend models and API endpoints for complex scientific workflows.
• Design and implement rich frontend components and architecture. We build and operate one of the largest, richest React applications out there and power complex scientific analyses.
• Work closely with product managers, designers, marketing, and sales to ensure the right context is being shared.
• Help rapidly scale our product and team. As a member of the engineering team, you'll be an integral part of how we mature our tooling, best practices, engineering processes, and hiring.

• At least 5 years of experience in software engineering.
• Build software with a product-first approach. You ship code quickly and care about the real world impact of your code.
• Have strong abilities in problem solving and iterating on feedback.
• Enjoy ownership and building key pieces of product.
• Are interested in learning more about life science (prior knowledge is not required; desire to learn is a must).
