Job Description:
Freenome is looking for an engineer to help build software libraries and services that accelerate and enable the activities of our Computational Research team. Computational Research is responsible for developing a machine learning platform that learns which biomarker patterns signify a cancer's stage, type, and most effective treatment pathways. Rapidly developing state-of-the-art machine learning systems requires high-speed bioinformatics, sophisticated ways of extracting features of interest from biological data, and a fast and easy means for using those features to train and validate a wide range of classifiers. The Research Software team's responsibility is to make these systems easy to use, reliable, efficient, and scalable so that the Computational Research team can accelerate its process of iteration and discovery. As an early team member, you'll take the lead on major projects and collaborate actively with our world-class team of engineers, scientists, designers and product managers. You'll build reliable, maintainable, scalable and fault-tolerant backend services that enable the growth of our business. Since we're a small team, you'll also have an opportunity to work on a broad range of projects at all levels of the stack. Responsibilities:
