Amyris, Inc. | Software Engineer | Emeryville, CA | Full-time, ONSITE, http://amyris.com

We are searching for talented, curious, and self-motivated developers to join our software engineering team in building the most advanced production-scale synthetic biology platform on the planet. R&D at Amyris is a highly multidisciplinary effort, where we need brilliant contributions from every area of the life sciences and engineering disciplines in order to take projects from concept to market.

From hacking directly on DNA in the lab to full scale factory production, every aspect of our work is facilitated and accelerated by software and hardware automation. Our tools integrate the activities of scientists, engineers, and industrial robots to enable the rapid optimization of genetic designs and laboratory processes.

Among the tools we have developed are a CAD/CAM system for genetic engineering: a compiler toolchain whose target architecture is life itself. This stack physically integrates high level genetic modules into microbial hosts. We also derive novel strains through random mutagenesis and directed evolution. Using our custom control platform, we then subject these experimental organisms to high throughput performance screening in our state-of-the-art robot labs.

Do you want to work with brilliant scientists and engineers to help create a better future for ourselves, our children, and everyone on the planet? Have you ever wished you could have gotten in on the ground floor at the dawn of the integrated circuit revolution? This is your chance to do foundational work in biotechnology. We are past proof of principle; we have begun the rapid expansion of a technology that will characterize this century. We think we're doing something far more interesting and exciting than almost anyone else out there, and we offer competitive compensation, excellent benefits, unlimited high quality conversation, free lunches, and beer!

We're looking for full stack developers to help build (mostly) web based tools for facilitating all aspects of the scientific and engineering process. Our stack is primarily Javascript (React, JQuery), Python (Pyramid), and Postgres, with a fair amount of F# and a bit of legacy PHP. Right now we're looking for developers with at least 5+ years of industry (software, not necessarily biotech) experience.

We also have openings (or will soon) in scientific computing, automation, and are looking for a DBA. Full list here: https://amyris.com/careers/

I'm the hiring manager for these positions. Feel free to contact me with any questions (email in profile).

The Farmer's Dog | Software Engineer | New York | https://www.thefarmersdog.com/ | Onsite | 90-140k + equity

The Farmer's Dog is a VC backed direct-to-consumer pet food company. We're building a subscription based e-commerce platform to support and manage custom subscriptions and food production. We've been cashflow positive from day 1 and are growing faster than expected.

Even though we don't sound like a typical tech company we take pride in development. We've built an e-commerce platform from ground up. It consists of 2 isomorphic Redux apps backed by a shared NodeJS API. We have CI and CD processes in place, and make use of docker-based microservices via Iron.io. We have plenty of challenges to tackle from predictive analysis to optimizing fulfillment operations.

We're looking for a senior Software Engineer who's comfortable writing backend code and dealing with docker and aws. Our stack is react (and redux), node, postgres, docker and aws.

Nava | Washington DC, San Francisco SF, New York NYC | DevOps/Infrastructure/Systems Engineers, Software/Fullstack Engineers | Product and Project Managers | Business Analysts | Designers On-site - Full-time | $100k-$160k+ + equity + benefits

We're a small team of engineers, designers, and product builders that were brought in to help fix Healthcare.gov in the winter of 2013. Our revamped application is used by millions, converts 35% better, and halves the completion time.

It turns out there’s a lot more to reimagine within government services, which is why we’re partnering with both the Department of Veterans Affairs and Medicare. With the VA, we are working to modernize their appeals system, making millions of veteran’s lives better through the process. Today, the average appeal takes 5 years to process; we can fix this. For Medicare, we are designing and building the architecture for Medicare's historic transition towards value-based care.

It’s surprising how much can be done by a small group of empathetic people with a Silicon Valley mindset, deep technical experience, working closely with dedicated civil servants in government. We’ve started Nava as a public benefit corporation to radically improve how our government serves its people, and we believe that the services our government provides should be clear and reliable. If you feel the same way, we'd love to hear from you at jobs@navahq.com
