FlowDeploy | Product Engineer, Bioinformatics Engineer| Full-time | REMOTE or ONSITE | https://flowdeploy.com FlowDeploy builds dev tools for bioinformatics, and we're looking for a product-minded software engineer and a bioinformatics engineer. I think a former or future founder would do well in this role. Curiosity matters more than domain-specific experience in bioinformatics, although some bioinformatics context…

This is super cool! It's nice to see commercialization in the bioinfo space, after dealing with bedraggled servers running in your PI's lab for many years and dealing with insane packages (ever try to install QIIME?). I would have loved this job coming out of college.

Thanks! Ironically, I was hired for my first job in bioinformatics by one of the QIIME authors. Unfortunately, that didn't make it any easier.

I don't think anyone has really figured out commercialization in the space yet – us included. The community is still rooted strongly in academia, so commercializing requires a delicate balance between profitability and openness.

I imagine it's what building dev tools was like a couple decades ago. It's fun to see the field grow and evolve.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Ah. This would be perfect for me (see my bio), but I'm only UK and EU based. I'd do remote if I could.

Argh, this could be a perfect fit for you. I'm disappointed that we won't be able to make it work for these roles. Candidly, we haven't figured out how to do international remote work well. Hopefully we will in the future!

Hah, no worries - if ever you start anything in the UK/EU space, feel free to ping me!

I'm not seeing anything in the bioinformatics space at the moment. What job did you end up doing after college can I ask?

Got recruited as a run of the mill PHP dev at a local medium sized business. Turns out my PI did not get the grant and so I ended up going private

Yup, ain't that just how it goes. I'll probably make the leap soon myself sometime this year, and I'm not looking forward to playing "skill-tetris" with recruiters.

This pattern is common. Anecdotally, I think the majority of people trained in bioinformatics end up working full-time in standard software engineering.

I think this is starting to change. Next-generation sequencers and other imaging devices are causing more wet labs to produce massive amounts of data – which is increasing the number of companies hiring for bioinformatics roles.
