The Opportunity
Our Technology Centers focus on creating a space where teams can come together to deliver business solutions that save and improve lives. An integral part of our company’s IT operating model, Tech Centers are globally distributed locations where each IT division has employees to enable our digital transformation journey and drive business outcomes. These locations, in addition to the other sites, are essential to supporting our business and strategy.
A focused group of leaders in each Tech Center helps to ensure we can manage and improve each location, from investing in growth, success, and well-being of our people, to making sure colleagues from each IT division feel a sense of belonging to managing critical emergencies. And together, we must leverage the strength of our team to collaborate globally to optimize connections and share best practices across the Tech Centers.
Role Overview
We are looking for Software Engineers (SE) who can break down and solve complex problems with a strong motivation to get things done with a boots-on-the-ground, pragmatic mindset! Our engineers own their products end to end and influence the way how our products and technology are deployed to facilitate most aspects of drug discovery impacting hundreds of thousands of patients around the world. We are looking for engineers who can creatively handle complex dependencies and ambiguous requirements, competing business priorities, while producing fit-for-purpose, optimal solutions.
We are hoping that you are passionate about collaborating across the interface between hard-core software development and research and discovery data analysis.
Our Engineering team builds core components used by our company's Research Labs’ data analytics, visualization, and management workflows. The analysis tools and pipelines built for data processing by our team in partnership with our scientists aim to accelerate research and the discovery of new therapies for our patients.
We collect, annotate, analyze petabytes of scientific data (multi-omics, chemistry, imaging, safety) used in biomarker research, drug safety/efficacy, drug target discovery, and compendium diagnostic development. We help our scientists to process, analyze scientific data at scale by developing highly parallelized analytical workflows ran on HPC infrastructure (on-prem & cloud); to manage, explore and visualize various scientific data modalities by developing bespoke data models, bioinformatics ETL processes, data retrieval and visualization services using distributed micro-service architecture, FAIR data principles, SPA type dashboards, industry specific regulatory compliant data integrity, auditing, and security access controls.
We are a creative and disciplined software engineering team, using agile practices and established technology stacks to design and develop large-scale data analytics, visualization, and management software solutions for local and on-cloud hosted HPC datacenters, as well as to integrate 3rd party analytical platforms with internal data workflows to address pressing engineering and data science challenges of life-science.
