Responsibilities

You provide IT support to tackle exciting life science problems.

At MBD, we seek a person with skills in process monitoring and scheduling, pipeline development, and software development. In the recent past, we significantly upgraded our CPU / GPU computer hardware and have exclusive access to multiple high-performance computing servers to analyse big life science data. In parallel, we have to continuously develop and optimize our software solutions towards efficient, high-performance computation to cope with the increasing complexity of big data. On top of that, we reach out to the community whenever possible and encapsulate our services into pipelines and web applications. Together, our hardware, pipelines, and encapsulated software applications require constant monitoring, maintenance, and development.

In collaboration with our team at MBD, the tasks to be addressed by the IT specialist comprise:

Web app development, deployment, and maintenance
Curation of pipelines dedicated to efficient, high-throughput data pre-processing and analysis
Cluster management / server administration
Distributed computing / software scaling towards grid engines
Monitoring / workload surveillance of our HPCs

Requirements

To ensure the fulfilment of our goals, we welcome applications as IT support from software and IT specialists with the following expertise:

University degree in computer science, bioinformatics, or a comparable field
Experience in accessing server units through command-line, as well as developing / maintaining analysis pipelines in containerized environments, is a must
Proficiency in R and/or Python for pipeline and web application development, as well as big data analysis
Interest in life science data science, including gene expression and microbiome data analysis, is a plus
Knowledge in statistical methods in the context of biological systems is a plus

What we offer

The IT-support will be hosted in the Department of Microbiome Dynamics (MBD) of Prof. Dr. Gianni Panagiotou of the Leibniz-HKI in an international, dynamic team with access to state-of-the-art computational resources.
Remuneration will be according to the TV-L (Collective Agreement for the Public Service of the Federal States, unrestricted, full-time) at the salary level E10. Depending on qualifications, adjustments are possible. As an equal opportunity employer, the Leibniz-HKI is committed to increasing the percentage of female scientists and therefore especially encourages them to apply.
