Principal DevOps Engineer at Novartis Institutes for BioMedical Research (Cambridge, MA)

At Novartis Institutes for BioMedical Research (NIBR), our mission is to discover innovative medicines that treat disease and human health. To do that, our scientists need cutting-edge, state-of-the-art computing systems.


Today, we are witnessing a revolution. Technology advancement is changing the landscape of drug and target discovery. A decade ago, sequencing a single genome cost $100 million and took years. Today, it takes about a week and $1,000, creating terabytes of data. At NIBR Informatics, we create tools that empower scientists to accelerate drug discovery and improve patients' lives. We build data, business logic, analysis, and visualization platforms and applications for our customers – 6,000 scientists worldwide – that allow them to solve problems that have never been solved before.
