I'm a full professor of molecular neuroscience, leading a group of ten people (PhD students, postdocs). We use single-cell RNA sequencing to discover and understand all the cell types of the mouse brain. We have published very well (Science, Nature, etc) and have just been funded to map every cell type in the mouse nervous system. This is an incredibly exciting project: for the first time, we will be able to say exactly what types of cells exist in every brain region, and which genes are specifically active in those cells. We have great funding for the next five years.

Now, I'm looking for a front-end programmer with some back-end skills to help build a data portal to share our data with the scientific community.

* Work in our team in Stockholm, Sweden

* Work with people from all over the world (English is our working language)

* Help us do groundbreaking science!

* Ok salary, great Swedish employment benefits

We're looking for someone who can build an UI, with tools for visualising and browsing a very large and complex dataset. We think you love making data pretty! Currently, we use

* Python for the back-end and tools

* React and D3 for the front-end

Snapdocs is a early-stage, rapidly growing company looking for a battle-hardened rails engineer. The ideal candidate is someone who plans to become a lead engineer (or perhaps a product manager) in the not too distant future.

We're a small team tackling the absolutely massive mortgage market. We're bringing modern, elegant software to a field that still relies on fax machines and manilla envelopes. We bring security, efficiency and joy to a paper-based pillar of the US economy.

The type of problems we're tackling involve workflow, product design, and data. Monolith vs microservice is an ongoing debate. We are working to find a good authentication pattern that allows for people to work across companies in multiple roles (which is trickier than you might think!). Domain Driven Design is our guiding light.

Snapdocs’ culture is one that trusts its team members to make smart decisions. This means we value both independent work as well as seeking collaboration. We're becoming ubiquitous in one segment of the market and we're looking to hire another core engineer to help us expand further.

==Job Description and Required Skills== * Rails Engineer. 3+ years experience, but more is welcome. Ideally, you're a full stack coder. But in reality, you probably lean either towards the front or the back end. That's fine, so long as you know (and are proud of) your strengths.

* Being the 5th member of on a fast-growing technical team. This means helping to form a healthy and happy culture. We strive to be respectful of each other's time and point of view. We're learning how to do this together. We want to create a place where it's OK to fail, and that you know the team has your back the whole way through.

* Self-motivated. To us that means when you get an interesting problem, you will rip into it until you understand its nuances and perhaps have a glimpse of the solution.

* Empathy. We work closely with our customers, meaning phone calls, emails, and sometimes lunch. It is important in this job to listen to them so that we can build what they need and want.

* Knowledge of AWS would be excellent.

* UX experience (or interest in cultivating it) would be excellent.

Send an email to jobs@snapdocs.com telling us about yourself. Please include a resume and a link to github (and specific github repos) if your profile is informative.
