  • PhD in a relevant field (Systems Biology/Natural Sciences, Bioinformatics/Computer Science/Data Science/Mathematics/Physics etc.).
  • Strong programming skills in Python/C++/Julia or related languages.
  • Foundational knowledge of linear algebra and numerical methods for optimization, dynamical systems, and machine learning.
  • Significant experience in Python programming with a track record of developing programs and scripts conforming to common coding and software development standards.
  • Ability to organise and prioritise workload within a project management framework.
  • Dedication to reproducible research and open science.
  • Familiarity with machine learning frameworks (jax/pytorch).
  • Experience in utilizing high-performance computing environments for large-scale computational tasks (e.g. SLURM).
  • Experience in teaching or training others.
  • Knowledge of other research areas relevant to Crick research.

About the Crick:

The Crick is a world-leading biomedical research institute that conducts research at the forefront of biomedical science. We combine rigour with an open and collaborative culture, reflecting our status as a partnership of six organisations aiming to pool knowledge, ideas, and resources. Our research portfolio is wide-ranging, with no divisions or departments, bringing biomedical researchers together with clinicians, physical scientists, and applied scientists from our pharmaceutical partners.

We aim to attract the most talented researchers and support them to tackle innovative research questions. Our science technology platforms provide our researchers with access to state-of-the-art technology and expertise. We provide an excellent learning environment with dedicated education programmes in public engagement with science, education, and personal development, and a postdoc training programme that prepares scientists for leadership roles in science.

Equality, Diversity & Inclusion:

We welcome applications from all backgrounds. We are committed to providing equal employment opportunities, regardless of ethnicity, nationality, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion, pregnancy, age, disability, or civil partnership, marital or family status. Diversity is essential to excellence in scientific endeavour. We want the Crick to be a place where everyone feels valued and where diversity is celebrated and seen as part of the foundation for our Institute's success.
