Develop full stack software solutions for scientific system of record to support automated scientific analysis and lab workflows.
О компании
- The Scientific System of Record Team (SSR) builds the memory layer for Lila's operations. It answers two questions: what did we plan to build? and what actually happened? These systems connect scientific intent to physical reality. Together with the data and automation teams, their systems ensure reproducibility and close the Design-Build-Test-Learn (DBTL) loop.
Требования
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or related field.
- 4-6+ years of engineering experience building and deploying large-scale systems in production. You must be strong in either front-end or backend.
- Strong expertise in at least one of the following areas, with the ability to work across the stack: front-end engineering, backend engineering, or data modeling and system design.
- TypeScript, React, and Python: Strong experience building modern applications with React and TypeScript; Python experience is strongly preferred.
- Application and API Development: Experience designing, building, and maintaining APIs, services, and application components with a focus on reliability, performance, and maintainability.
- Databases and Data Modeling: Experience with SQL and at least one of NoSQL, vector databases, search systems, or data lakehouse architectures; familiarity with schema design, indexing, and query optimization.
- Production Systems: Experience operating production software, including debugging, monitoring, performance tuning, and improving reliability over time.
- Collaboration: Strong communication skills and a track record of working cross-functionally with engineers, product teams, scientists, or other domain experts.
- Problem Solving: Ability to take ownership of ambiguous technical problems, make practical trade-offs, and deliver maintainable solutions.
- Hands-on experience using AI coding assistants or AI-augmented engineering workflows to improve productivity.
Будет плюсом
- Cloud and DevOps: Hands-on experience with AWS, GCP, or Azure; strong understanding of Kubernetes, containerization, infrastructure as code such as Terraform or CloudFormation, and CI/CD pipelines such as GitHub Actions.
- Orchestration Systems: Experience with orchestration tools such as Flyte, Temporal, Airflow, Prefect, or similar systems.
- Experience building laboratory, scientific workflow, LIMS, ELN, data platform, or ML platform products.
- Experience designing systems that support auditability, traceability, reproducibility, data provenance, or regulated workflows.
