  • Familiarity with version control and Git/GitHub.
  • Ability to design, build, and test pipelines using a range of different technologies.
  • Experience with storing, searching, and filtering large-scale genomic data.
  • Good understanding of cloud environments (ideally Azure), distributed computing, and scaling workflows and pipelines.
  • Proficient in Python.
  • Experience of workflow management tools, e.g., Nextflow, WDL/Cromwell, Airflow, Prefect, Dagster.
  • Understanding of common data transformation and storage formats, e.g., Apache Parquet.
  • Experience of working with data lakes; experience with Spark, Databricks.
  • Understanding of containerisation, e.g., Docker.
  • Awareness of data standards such as GA4GH and FAIR.
  • Understanding and working knowledge of information governance and data security approaches appropriate for sensitive health data.

You will have the opportunity to work with researchers to understand data requirements and deliver the data needed for their projects. We offer a competitive salary of up to £60,000 per annum, a generous company pension package with employer contributions of up to 12%, 30 days annual leave, and continuous career development opportunities.

Our lovely new office is located in Holborn, Central London, and we offer flexible and remote working arrangements.
