Chan Zuckerberg Initiative is hiring a
Remote Senior Software Engineer Single Cell Science
The Opportunity\n\nThe Single Cell Engineering team builds tools that enable scientists from a broad range of backgrounds to unlock insights from single-cell transcriptomics data. Among the tools we build are visualizations built on top of the 30 million cells we have amassed. These interactive-speed visualizations accelerate the speed at which scientists can query and form hypotheses on understanding how genetic variants in cells impact disease risk, define drug toxicities, and eventually discover better therapies.\n\nAs a senior software engineer on the Data Visualization Engineering team, you will design and implement full stack features on our core web application, CELLxGENE Discover, to enable scientists to interrogate further our vast and growing corpus of data without any need to download the data itself or have any computational expertise. You will work on a collaborative, multidisciplinary team to develop solutions for our scientist users to accelerate their workflows and the pace of scientific discovery.\n\n* No prior biology experience is required for this role. You will have the opportunity to pair with Computational Biologists to develop solutions for our users and be able to learn about single-cell biology from experts on our team.\n\n\n* Our tech stack: Python, Typescript, React, Terraform, AWS infrastructure, TileDB.\nYou will\n\n\n* Design, build, and optimize features for our large-scale visualizations to facilitate the reuse of terabytes of single cell transcriptomics data. \n\n* Develop scalable, maintainable, and testable software systems and participate in team conversations and efforts on engineering excellence.\n\n* Collaborate with product managers, computational biologists, UX designers, and other software engineers to deliver constant incremental value for scientists without compromising on software quality.\n\n* Have opportunities to learn about single cell technologies, though no prior experience is required!\n\n\n\nYou have\n\n\n* 5+ years of relevant software experience\n\n* Strong fundamentals in systems design, data structures, algorithms, and object oriented programming principles.\n\n* Past experience building new features or systems in web- or cloud-based applications.\n\n* Excellent written and verbal communication skills.\n\n* Enthusiasm to ramp up on technologies and learn a new science domain.\n\n* Experience working in a multidisciplinary environment (engineering, product, design).\n\n\n\n\n \n\n#LI-Remote \n\n#Salary and compensation\n

👉 Please reference you found the job on Remote OK, this helps us get more companies to post here, thanks!
When applying for jobs, you should NEVER have to pay to apply. You should also NEVER have to pay to buy equipment which they then pay you back for later. Also never pay for trainings you have to do. Those are scams! NEVER PAY FOR ANYTHING! Posts that link to pages with "how to work online" are also scams. Don't use them or pay for them. Also always verify you're actually talking to the company in the job post and not an imposter. A good idea is to check the domain name for the site/email and see if it's the actual company's main domain name. Scams in remote work are rampant, be careful! Read more to avoid scams. When clicking on the button to apply above, you will leave Remote OK and go to the job application page for that company outside this site. Remote OK accepts no liability or responsibility as a consequence of any reliance upon information on there (external sites) or here.
