Senior Software Engineer, Project A-Life
About the role
We are looking for a nimble, creative Software Engineer to join our small multidisciplinary team. As an early hire, you won’t just be writing tickets. You will be architecting the foundational software that allows AI to interface with complex biological data. You will work directly with our computational biologists and lab scientists to solve hard problems with elegant, scalable software tools.
Who you are
- A generalist at heart: You are comfortable moving across the stack. You care more about solving the problem than using a specific language or tool.
- Mission-obsessed: You are energized by the idea of using technology to solve big challenges in climate and biotechnology.
- Comfortable with ambiguity: You thrive in a "move fast" team environment where the roadmap evolves as we learn.
- Techically fearless: You aren't intimidated by the prospect of building software for a field as complex and messy as biology.
What you should have
- BS/MS in CS or equivalent practical experience
- Experience with software development for data-heavy scientific applications
- PhD in CS or a natural science is preferred but not required
- Startup experience, or equivalent experience on early stage teams
- 5+ years of experience building software in an enterprise environment
- Experience with Google Cloud developer tools, including the latest in AI
It’d be great if you also had these
- People management experience
- Experience in life-science or bio-tech projects
