Software Engineer, Lab Platform
Arc Institute, Palo Alto, CA +1
The role
You'll join Arc's Infrastructure Engineering team and own support and operations for our laboratory information management system (LIMS). Arc's scientists record their samples and experiments there, including the variables they change from one experiment to the next. That record is business intelligence for the lab: it's how scientists learn which conditions improve an assay, and it also feeds the pipelines that process lab data automatically.
You'll run the request queue, make schema changes, train users and maintain the checks on data as it's entered, and you'll turn the requests that keep coming back into automation. You don't need LIMS experience: strong Python and SQL and an interest in lab data matter more, and we'll teach you the platform. You'll start under our lab platform Tech Lead, who will review your work and mentor you.
