The successful candidate will have a degree and experience as a Bioinformatician or Computational Biologist. Knowledge of a range of bioinformatics tools should be sufficient to provide support and training. Familiarity with scripting languages such as Python, Perl and R is expected, while programming abilities in other languages e.g. SQL, JAVASCRIPT and HTML could be an advantage. Familiarity with UNIX-based OSes is also desirable. The candidate should have prior experience of working at the interface between biology and computation. As well as being able to work well within a team, the candidate must have good communication, interpersonal and organizational skills. Initiative, flexibility and willingness to learn will complete your profile.  [More]

EMBL is seeking a highly motivated (bio)informatician to work in the Genome Biology Computational Support (GBCS) group. The position involves the maintenance and development of emBASE, an EMBL-wide web-based application dedicated to the management of *omics data (in particular NGS data) produced by the different EMBL groups. The successful applicant will also maintain tools and scientific libraries on unix-based servers, develop analysis pipeline in Galaxy and/or using workflow management systems (e.g. snakemake), and help managing our Galaxy server. Ideally, the candidate is able to conduct data analysis (in particular NGS data using e.g. R/bioconductor) and has some experience with docker and cloud-based technologies. The successful applicant is in charge of supporting users on a daily basis, assembling training materials (e.g. writing of wiki-based documentation/how-to) and organizing tutorials  [More]
