We strongly encourage all candidates of diverse backgrounds and lived experiences to apply. A Brief Overview The Bioinformatics Engineer I position is an entry-level position in the support of computational environments focused on the management, transfer, formatting, and general processing of complex data types associated with genomics and proteomics. Whereas the Bioinformatics Scientist is primarily focused on the outcome of an analysis in terms of the scientific endpoint, the Bioinformatics Engineer is primarily focused on the outcome of an analysis in terms of validity, efficiency, and robustness. The focus of the position is basic systems implementation of data manipulation and analysis pipelines, applications, general hardware configurations, and bioinformatics-specific hardware configurations. Bioinformatics programming activities are also included. The Bioinformatics Engineer I primarily operates in a local environment as opposed to enterprise-level. The position allows for a wide variety of activities described within the job responsibilities and encompasses positions within both research and clinical environments. Activities occur with a high degree of supervision with low latitude for independent judgment. The Bioinformatics Engineer I will be introduced to the concepts of best practices in scripting, pipeline workflow development, hardware and software configurations, change controls, quality, sustainability, and documentation. The Bioinformatics Engineer I is primarily focused on supporting bioinformatics analytical groups and individuals as an engineering resource.
