[Hiring] Bioinformatics Engineer II @Parse Biosciences
Role Description
As a Bioinformatics Engineer II within the Trailmaker development team, you will play a key role in guiding the technical direction of the platform while contributing hands-on across the full stack. You’ll collaborate closely with other engineers to architect and build new features that drive user engagement. This is a highly collaborative environment with no division between backend, frontend or testing roles - each engineer contributes to any part of the codebase and is responsible for the entire development process from work planning, through implementation and writing tests to completing the feature.
Qualifications
• A degree in bioinformatics (or similar) and 3+ total years of experience working in bioinformatics engineer roles. Additional experience (5+ years) is necessary to be appointed at Bioinformatics Engineer II level.
• Fluent in Python and R.
• Practical experience of working with open source single cell data analysis tools and packages, including Scanpy and Seurat.
• Competency working with container-based cloud applications, ideally on AWS.
• Strong data visualization skills.
• Significant experience in conducting code reviews and providing feedback to others.
• Experience and desire to work as part of a close-knit team.
• Experience using version control systems such as Git/GitHub is preferred.
• Proficiency building pipelines with Nextflow or similar frameworks is preferred.
• Experience of integrating AI tools into development workflows is preferred.
• Knowledge of and/or interest in web development is preferred.
• Experience working with Bash is preferred.
Requirements
• Always put the user first.
• Design, prototype, develop, and test new computational pipelines and visualizations for single cell data analysis in Trailmaker.
• Continuously iterate and improve existing single cell pipelines and features.
• Receive and incorporate feedback from customers and colleagues.
• Perform troubleshooting of customer analyses.
• Keep up-to-date on the rapidly evolving field of single cell genomics and relay observations of new methods, benchmarking studies, etc. to the team.
• Experiment, test, try, fail and learn continuously.
• Think like an owner, and take pride in your work.
• Help and mentor teammates.
Benefits
• Medical, dental, vision, and Rx (prescription) coverage beginning on the 1st day of the month following your start date. Parse covers 90% of the monthly premiums for employees, and 60% for dependents.
• A 401(k) program with no waiting period to participate.
• Basic life insurance and short and long-term disability coverage. Monthly premiums for both are covered at 100% by Parse.
• Flexible spending account (FSA) options for medical, dependent care, and commuter expenses.
• A transportation program (Seattle only).
• 12 paid holidays annually and a winter holiday break.
• A generous time off policy.
• Market Pay Range - Exact compensation offered will be determined based on the candidate’s education, experience, skills, and geographic location, and may vary for candidates in regions with significantly different market conditions. $100,000 — $135,000 USD.
