Dear all,
Ghent University and VIB are looking for a motivated software developer within the ELIXIR life sciences framework.
Project
The PLAZA platform for comparative, evolutionary, and functional genomics is a data resource that integrates gene and genome information ( [ https://bioinformatics.psb.ugent.be/plaza | https://bioinformatics.psb.ugent.be/plaza ] ). It offers a wide variety of tools to end-users through a web interface, in order to help speed up both small-scale and large-scale data analyses. Multiple independent instances of the platform exist, where each instance either focuses on a different phylogenetic clade, or uses improved gene annotations and genome assemblies compared to previous instances. In order to scale up the building of these instances, we are looking for a software developer to help with moving the PLAZA platform to cloud-based systems.
Your tasks:
* You are responsible for the design and implementation of the necessary tool-chain for building PLAZA instances in the cloud (e.g. OpenStack, Amazon cloud, Azure, etc.).
* You assist with the building of new PLAZA instances, and help with the implementation of unit-tests to check the status and validity of newly build PLAZA instances.
* You implement configuration and administration utilities for end-users, to facilitate building PLAZA instances.
Profile
You hold a degree of Master in computer science, bioinformatics, (bio)engineering, biotechnology or an equivalent degree
* Hands-on experience with Linux/Unix environments and BASH scripting
* Proficiency in at least one programming language (e.g. Java, Python, …) and one scripting language (e.g. Perl, Python, …)
* Good working knowledge of relational databases and SQL
