Job Description:
This role is to provide bioinformatics test support for Illumina’s data analysis software. As a bioinformatics test engineer, you will work in a cross functional team to perform verification and validation on Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) analysis (locally and in the cloud). You will also be working with workflow automation/management applications.
The successful candidate must be a fast learner, have a strong sense of ownership and motivation, and be detail-orientated.
Responsibilities:
Work independently in cross-functional teams to lead the testing effort for bioinformatics data analysis software.
Apply knowledge to develop, modify, and execute software test plans and test cases.
Develop and execute automation scripts for data validation.
Work with software developers, bioinformatics scientists and domain experts in designing, performing, and improving the verification process. Collaborate with peers to identify opportunities for process improvement.
Desired Skills and Experience
Requirements:
Bachelor or Master Degree (or higher) in Bioinformatics, Computational Science, or related field from an accredited university (or foreign equivalent).
Good verbal and written communication and troubleshooting skills.
Solid understanding of genetics, NGS technique, human genome analysis, and familiar with bioinformatics tools and algorithms.
Working experience with Linux and Windows OS, experience with scripting (such as bash or Python) and object-oriented programming (such as C#) is a must.
Previous working experience involving Bioinformatics software development or testing is preferred.
Familiarity with databases (such as MySQL or PostgreSQL), Cloud computing (such as Amazon Web Services), and web services is a plus.
