Requirements and responsibilities

Role Overview: - We are looking for a Senior C/C++ Bioinformatics Software Engineer for a remote full-time role in a healthcare / precision medicine product company working with human genetics and genomic data. - This is a highly specialized software engineering role. Key Requirements: - C / C++ development. - Bioinformatics / genomics / NGS experience. - Performance-critical software development. - This is not a generic C++ role and not a pure academic / wet-lab bioinformatics role. About the Role: - You will work on performance-critical genomics tools used in the analysis and interpretation of genomic data. - The focus is mostly on new C/C++ development, with some maintenance of existing tools and components. - You will be working in a distributed international team in the healthcare / genomics domain. Responsibilities: - Design and develop performance-critical tools for genomic data analysis. - Write new C/C++ code for bioinformatics / genomics-related software. - Maintain and improve existing C/C++ components. - Optimize code for performance, scalability, and reliability. - Work with genomic data and bioinformatics workflows. - Collaborate with bioinformaticians, engineers, and domain experts. - Work in a Linux-based development environment. - Write clean, maintainable, and production-quality code. Hard Requirements: - 3+ years of hands-on C or C++ development experience. - Real experience in bioinformatics, genomics, NGS, or genomic data. - Experience developing or optimizing software tools, not only using ready-made tools. - Strong understanding of performance-critical software development. - Linux experience. - Ability to write clean, reliable, and maintainable code. - Strong problem-solving skills. - Strong English communication skills. - Ability to work remotely in an international team. - Availability for full-time, long-term cooperation. Relevant Domain Experience: - NGS data. - Genomic data processing. - Variant calling. - Variant annotation. - Sequence analysis. - Alignment tools. - FASTQ, BAM/SAM, CRAM, VCF, or similar genomic data formats. - Genomics databases. - Clinical genomics. - Human genetics. - Precision medicine. - Rare diseases / oncology / diagnostics. - Bioinformatics algorithms. - High-performance scientific software. Nice to Have: - Python or other scripting languages. - Docker / containerization. - Git. - Experience with large-scale biological data. - Experience with production-grade bioinformatics tools. - Experience transferring research algorithms into reliable software. - Experience with cloud or distributed systems. Important Clarification: - Python is not a must-have for this role. - Pipeline tools such as Prefect, Nextflow, Snakemake, WDL, or Cromwell are not required. - The main focus is C/C++ development for performance-critical genomics tools. Please Do NOT Apply If: - You are a general C++ developer without bioinformatics / genomics experience. - You are a general backend developer without genomics experience. - You are a bioinformatician who mainly uses existing tools but does not develop software. - Your experience is mostly wet-lab biology. - Your experience is mostly R / statistics / data analysis without strong C/C++ development. - You have no real experience with NGS, genomics, or genomic data. - You are looking only for short-term freelance projects. Location and Work Format: - Remote. - Full-time. - Long-term cooperation. - Employee or contractor format can be considered. - Candidates from different countries can be considered. - Preference: Southern Europe, Eastern Europe, UK, or similar remote-friendly locations. Compensation: - Competitive compensation depending on seniority, location, and contract format.
