Experience of working in a continuous deployment environment, with source control and managed releases is required. A proven track record of working on large-scale data analysis projects and understanding the challenges posed by collaborative projects, including flexibility, tight deadlines, and use of state of the art approaches. Previous experience of working on other biological data projects will be an advantage.
