Original posting
Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Biosustainability (DTU Biosustain) | Full Stack Engineer | Copenhagen Denmark | ONSITE | VISA
The project
Modern genome engineering technologies have enabled the rapid and precise editing of DNA, causing a paradigm shift in biotechnology: with the focus shifted from reading to writing genetic information, which of the three billion DNA letters in a human cell need to be rewritten in order to prevent disease, live longer, or encode entirely novel features?
The project we are hiring you for is about building a web-based application for computational aided design of cells. Communicating with biological knowledge bases and mathematical models (mechanistic and AI-based), the platform will guide engineers in writing the right DNA based on the entire computable knowledge available for a cell.
The job
We are looking for a full-stack developer. You will be dealing with biological concepts every day, discovering the best user experience for interacting with DNA and its encoded information. Deep understanding of biology is not a requirement though, most of the developers in the institute were able to gain the necessary knowledge after joining our team.
Our technology stack at the moment is:
- Angular, Angular Material, Typescript
- Python3.6 for the backend services (Flask, celery, etc.) and core scientific libraries
- Postgres, MongoDB, Redis, Neo4j
- Sentry, Prometheus, Grafana
- Docker, Kubernetes, Google Cloud Platform (GKE, Cloud SQL, Container Registry)
