Role
Who you are
- 1+ years of software engineering experience
- Ability and desire to build from the ground up, stepping nimbly across different domains of technical expertise
- Strong communication and collaboration skills in both written and verbal forms, as well as via clear, cleanly written code
- Experience developing thoughtfully designed, highly performant systems in backend web technologies such as Flask or Node
- Desire to improve software infrastructure for scientists advancing the health and welfare of people
Desirable
- Experience in a lab or working with scientific instrumentation, lab automation, or robotics in a software context
- Experience developing pipelines on workflow management software such as Airflow
- Contributions to open source packages
- Experience working within a quality, compliance, or GxP framework
What the job involves
- Span the stack, from frontend, backend, cloud infra, data infra, to maybe some direct work with biotech hardware too! (No experience needed in hardware or frontend - just a willingness to learn what it takes in a rapidly evolving startup environment)
- Day-to-day work will be a combination of scrappy implementation to maintain our pace, and careful strategic planning to avoid and reduce tech debt in the future
- You'll play an important client-facing role with our founding customers as we prioritize our roadmap and scope out the exact details of our releases. In a technical environment like Ganymede, engineering and product are inseparable
- You'll also be a key determinant of our culture, and will help us grow and set norms for the business as we scale
Our take
Ganymede bills itself as the world’s first Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) for biotech software engineering, allowing scientists to quickly import data, connect and integrate apps and instruments, and automate their lab on one platform.
Though it's still early days for the company, the fact that its built an original product gives it an obvious edge. Further encouragement comes in the name of its main early investor BoxGroup, an early-stage specialist which has backed high-growth companies such as Trello, Airtable, and Bowery Farms in their infancy.
That Ganymede’s co-founder Nathan Clark was a Product Manager at Benchling, a renowned startup platform for biotechnology R&D is also a good sign that the company can scale quickly over the next few years.
