\\nAbout The Role

The Genedata Biologics core development team creates and maintains our Genedata Biologics\\xc2\\xae and Genedata Bioprocess\\xc2\\xae products which are widely used in pharmaceutical and biotech research and development. This position offers an exciting opportunity to shape and promote these successful products. You will be working in a strong, agile, international team with the focus on delivering software that makes a difference. You\\xe2\\x80\\x99ll be working closely together with our excellent product management and scientific teams.

As a member of the core development team you will be wearing all the hats: Design REST APIs to feed our SPA, help users by developing new features, save someone\\xe2\\x80\\x99s day by fixing a bug. Maybe change someone\\xe2\\x80\\x99s life by understanding their problem and at last providing a solution that works. You\\xe2\\x80\\x99ll optimize database queries and the performance of Java code to make our software a pleasure to work with. You\\xe2\\x80\\x99ll save everyone a lot of trouble by heavily testing critical code. You\\xe2\\x80\\x99ll help your fellow developers by automating common tasks and by exploring and introducing new technologies and tools.

Continuous progress in the industry means that our products evolve constantly, and many new features are added with every release. This requires a solid software architecture and a good deal of engineering craftsmanship. Best software development practices such as Test-Driven Development and Clean Code are therefore not only buzzwords for us but key factors for our long-term success. We are following a modern agile development approach with regular stand-up, planning, review and retrospective meetings. We use feature branches, continuous integration, code reviews and pair programming. We offer regular technical and scientific seminars.

This full-time position is based at our head office in Basel, Switzerland.
