Codified Genomics - Houston TX (remote OK) codifiedgenomics.com

Software you write at Codified will directly influence healthcare decisions for thousands of patients. We're looking for experienced software engineers who are up to that challenge, and who have a track record of working in an environment that demands a high level of quality.

We do clinical genomic variant analysis. We take whole exome sequence data and predict clinical outcome for the variants we observe in patients, which is then used by clinicians to inform treatment. To do this, we aggregate large amounts of additional data on individual genes and variants, and apply a series of proprietary algorithms. We started with seed funding and are currently profitable with revenue from our first customer.

We're hiring our first engineer. At Codified your responsibilities will be wide - you will probably end up touching every piece of software we write, with an emphasis on the user facing applications. We are currently using GWT and mysql with some scripting in Python. Additionally, you'll help us grow our team over the next few months as we continue to add engineers.

We have a large number of interesting projects under active development, spanning natural language processing, machine learning, user interface design and of course sequence analysis.

We're looking for someone who is experienced, flexible and willing to work outside of their comfort zone. A willingness to learn is more important to us than a Biology background, but the job will require you to learn the basics of the Biology that we're working with.

We're willing to consider remote work for experienced candidates, but preference will be shown to candidates in the Houston area.

We are offering 70k+ salary and equity. Contact us at codifiedgenomics@gmail.com

I wrote Cognii a couple months ago and got nothing back. No rejection letter. Just silence. My advice: Do. Not. Waste. Time. (Sorry, but if people don't speak out, then shitty behavior continues.)

I have no idea what Cognii is. Also, I'm usually a fan of your posts. However, not replying to an email or job inquiry is not such a big deal that you would hold it against them or call them out publicly for it.

I generally agree with you, but I think it's bad for the Hacker News community when people don't get thoughtful replies, even when the decision is a "no". It feels the slide away from a small technologist-centric community into the corporate way of doing things is underway.

[Edit: to make it clear, the social contract is different on a job board, because it takes no effort to send a resume and they probably get hundreds of unqualified, spamming applicants. I just hope that isn't what Hacker News has become. I could be wrong, though. Maybe each company does get hundreds of crappy resumes.]

Who downvoted this? And why?

My first guess is that the downvoter(s) think this is for booking.com...I initially did (but I didn't downvote, because on second look, it isn't clear). There are a lot of bad stories about working at booking.com...one of those things you don't even know how you know, but you realize it must get brought up a lot for that association (and only that association) to exist with the company. edit: now I did downvote it fo…

> edit: now I did downvote it for posting a duplicate where a simple list of countries would have sufficed.

Um, uh, er. Yeah, you're right, darn it. I didn't think about that (duh), but in retrospect, it should have been obvious to me :(

I won't make that mistake again. Thanks for pointing it out!
