Oxford Nanopore employs from multiple subject areas including nanopore science, molecular biology and applications, informatics, engineering, electronics, manufacturing and commercialisation.

The management team, led by CEO Dr Gordon Sanghera, has a track record of delivering disruptive technologies to the market.

Oxford Nanopore's sequencing platform is the only technology that offers real-time analysis, in fully scalable formats from pocket to population scale, that can analyse native DNA or RNA and sequence any length of fragment to achieve short to ultra-long read lengths.

We are looking for a delivery-focused Senior Software Engineer to join our Instrument Core team.

This is a role for a talented and experienced C++ engineer to contribute to the design, development and delivery of our industry-leading DNA sequencing technology.

We are seeking a talented Software Engineer with 5, or more, years of experience to join the Instrument Software team.

You will be part of the team responsible for maintaining and improving our data acquisition and instrument control software.

You will primarily be working on MinKNOW Core, a high-performance piece of software written in C++ that sits at the centre of our acquisition and analysis software.

MinKNOW Core is responsible for acquiring raw signal data from our custom hardware, communicating with the basecaller to convert the raw signal into sequences, writing output data to disk, and providing an API that the UI uses to control and monitor experiments.

Collaborating with the Senior Director of Instrument Software, and his teams.

the successful candidate will work closely with domain expert scientists to design, deliver and maintain effective software tools for DNA sequencing and applications.


Delivering robust, well-tested, highly efficient production-level implementations of innovative software
Working with scientists to improve and exploit this software in new applications

We'll expect you to have experience of algorithm development and optimisation as well as development experience in C++11 (and later) and a deep understanding of C++.

You're someone with strong design and coding skills with knowledge of professional software development techniques and practices. You know the importance of testing and quality control, yet have a solid focus on delivery.

Ideally, in addition to your strong C++ skills, you'll also have:

Experience using standard development tools and practices (Git, Unit/Integration Testing, CI/CD, Ticketing, Agile development)
Experience with industry standard C++ libraries and tools (boost, gsl, Catch2, CMake)
Development experience in Python
Knowledge of signal processing, electronic engineering, Linux, or embedded systems

This is an exciting role and chance to join a ground breaking, fast-paced organisation with opportunities to utilise new technology and inspire change and will suit someone with an appreciation for science and the scientific method.

We offer outstanding benefits to include an attractive bonus, generous pension contributions, private healthcare and an excellent starting salary.

Based within beautiful, landscaped surroundings with tree-lined walks, water features and a lake, all of which make for a wonderful working environment.

Please note that no terminology in this advert is intended to discriminate on the grounds of a person's gender, marital status, race, religion, colour, age, disability or sexual orientation.

The company has developed a new generation of nanopore-based sensing technology enabling the real-time, high-performance, accessible and scalable analysis of DNA and RNA.

The technology is used in more than 100 countries to understand the biology of humans and diseases, plants, animals, bacteria, viruses and whole environments.

Oxford Nanopore was founded in 2005 as a spin-out from the University of Oxford and now employs over 1000 employees around the world.
