Job Description:
The Earlham Institute (EI, Norwich, UK) is looking for a highly motivated bioinformatician to join an exciting collaborative project between the Swarbreck (Core Bioinformatics, EI) and Krasileva (UC Berkeley) groups to integrate and translate wheat genomics data into functional applications. We are looking for a candidate driven to make a change in providing solutions to agricultural problems through coding and implementation of new software. In particular, this role will be responsible for the design, implementation and deployment of software pipelines for the integration of the genomic and genetic data available for wheat and related species, building a toolbox for functional analyses of the wheat genome. To be considered for this role candidates must have the following qualifications, skills and experience: • Experience in computational biology with background in Big Data analyses (PhD is desirable but not essential). • Knowledge of good practice principles for software engineering. • Proven track record in the use of programing languages (e.g. Perl, Python, Java, R). • Experience with bioinformatics tools and working with high throughput datasets. • Experience with genome variation analysis. • Experience in Graphical User Interface development is a big plus. • Ability to communicate clearly with EI staff at all levels. • Ability to work as part of an effective team, and a good team player. We highly encourage candidates from all disciplines and backgrounds to apply
