Job Description:
As a Senior Software Engineer you will wear several hats and be recognized as much for your leadership skills, team building as for your expertise in web technologies, distributed systems, and high-performance cloud computing platforms. Your top three priorities will be Infrastructure/Platform, Applications, and Leadership. How you will spend your time:
Additional Info:
Next-gen genomic sequencing is a new frontier. The complexity and sheer size of the data in the life sciences will make astronomical data problems look modest. Bina has been acquired by Roche Sequencing, and we are not only changing science, but we are changing lives. Our software teams are laying the groundwork for the future by developing powerful bioinformatics algorithms, data analysis tools, and software/systems infrastructures so researchers can develop better diagnostics faster. The path to curing cancer lies in ones and zeros. Who we are: At Roche, 91,700 people across 100 countries are pushing back the frontiers of healthcare. Working together, we’ve become one of the world’s leading research-focused healthcare groups. Our success is built on innovation, curiosity and diversity. Why work with us? Because you want to make your mark in this world, are relentless in the pursuit of excellence and you are ready to code to cure. Culture – What’s important to us, and ideally to you:
