Location:
The Francis Crick Institute, Midland Road, London About the role… In this role, you will play a key role in developing, implementing, and maintaining the lab’s scientific software ecosystem. You will work both independently and collaboratively to design and optimize reusable computational pipelines and software development workflows, ensuring their long-term maintainability. Collaboration with other lab members will be a significant part of the role, including teaching and training in good software development practices, conducting code reviews, and providing day-to-day coding support. At the same time, you will independently drive the development of robust, scalable, and reusable software solutions, contributing to the lab’s scientific and operational success through both individual initiative and teamwork. What you will be doing… As a
Senior Computational Research Engineer
at the Crick, you will: Provide technical expertise and input for the development, refinement, and troubleshooting of relevant or novel computational methodologies. Implement, benchmark, evaluate, and apply existing and novel numerical methods to build bespoke analysis and modelling pipelines. Help to develop others by mentoring and sharing expertise and experience. Help to develop and implement group project management and reporting procedures. Continue professional development through maintaining awareness of developments in the wider research communities. About you… You will bring… A PhD in a relevant field (e.g., Computer Science, Data Science, Mathematics, Physics) or equivalent professional experience. Proficiency in programming languages such as Python, C++, Julia, or similar. Substantial programming experience with a proven ability to develop scripts and applications adhering to established software development standards, including version control and testing. Experience in mentoring, teaching, or training others. Experience with high-performance computing environments and managing large-scale computational tasks (e.g., SLURM). A commitment to reproducible research and open science principles. About Working at the Crick… Our values We are
