Job Description

Software Engineer II/III Informatics Development

The Allen Institute for Brain Science seeks a Software Engineer II/III (SWE) to join the data management team. This SWE will be responsible for managing large scientific data sets and analysis pipelines serving neuroscience and brain imaging research communities around the world.

This highly collaborative position will require the SWE to be the primary developer on multiple data analysis software packages used for high-throughput analysis and modeling of physiology activities in the mouse cortex in response to sensory stimuli and while performing behavioral tasks.

The SWE will collaborate with data production teams to design high-throughput data collection and analysis workflows, ensure that their software can be built and deployed in multiple research laboratories around the world, and facilitate standardized data generation and analysis in the community.

Our team uses popular and modern software tools in our Linux-based workflow. Most analysis code will be implemented in Python, although other languages could be required. Your code runs independently, but it will also be integrated into our custom laboratory information management system, which is written in Ruby on Rails, running on PostgreSQL.
