About Us:

The Centro Nacional de Análisis Genómico (CNAG) is one of the largest Genome Sequencing Centers in Europe.

The CNAG Consortium aims to carry out large-scale projects in DNA/RNA analysis for the improvement of quality of life in collaboration with the Spanish, European and International Research Community. CNAG researchers participate in major International Genome Initiatives such as the Human Cell Atlas (HCA), the International Cancer Genome Consortium (ICGC), the International Human Epigenome Consortium (IHEC), the International Rare Diseases Research Consortium (IRDiRC), the European Reference Genome Atlas (ERGA) and the European Infrastructure for life-science information (ELIXIR), as well as in several EU-funded projects.

The Role

We have an opening for a Front-end Software Engineer to play a key role in several cancer, rare diseases and immunology related projects, such as Instand-NGS4P (/instandngs4p.eu/), 3TR (/3tr-imi.eu/) and Solve-RD (/solve-rd.eu/). Specifically, for Instand-NGS4P, the aim is to develop a standardised Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) workflow from NGS data analysis to medical-decision making for common and rare adult and paediatric cancer. The workflow will leverage, among other, the current RD-Connect Genome Phenome Analysis Platform (/platform.rd-connect.eu/), with the objective to cover data management, clinical and genome data integration, genome analysis pipelines, variant annotation, interpretation, and reporting. For the 3TR project the aim is to integrate different type of omics data and be able to analyse and visualize those datasets. With the supervision of the Lead of the Data Platforms and Tools Development Team and in collaboration with cancer specialists, bioinformaticians and software engineers, the successful candidate will implement the UI features for the relevant projects.

The successful candidate will join the Data Platforms and Tools Development team, coordinated by Dr. Davide Piscia (/cnag.crg.eu/teams/bioinformatics-unit/data-platforms-and-tools-development). The team is part of the CNAG Bioinformatics Unit (led by Dr. Sergi Beltran), which has over 30 members and offers continuous growth and support on a professional level.

The team works in a stimulating scientific environment, applying state-of-the-art technologies to breakthrough research projects in Genomics that have an impact on people's health.
