We are looking for a scientific programmer interested in joining our bioinformatics department. Your main responsibility will be to support our broad range of open-source bioinformatics software, workflows, and services. Our bioinformatics research aims to answer complex biological questions that cannot be answered with basic information sources. Our digital tools basically consist of four types of “devices”: high-quality data analysis and software, supported by modern hardware and operating systems. If these requirements are not met, researchers cannot efficiently solve the problems at hand and your role in the group is to support their work. For this position, you need to have sufficient knowledge of biology and bioinformatics in order to support ongoing development and research, but it also requires being aware of IT security and compliance with GDPR, copyright laws.
Your main tasks will include contributions to maintain and improve existing tools and services (including WikiPathways, PathVisio, BridgeDb, Cytoscape, Chemistry Development Kit), development of novel workflows, and general support with bioinformatics analyses.
