Warwick Systems Biology Centre is a partner in a number of large scale
collaborative systems biology projects. These include a study of global
metabolic switching in Streptomyces coelicolor, funded through the
European transnational funding and research initiative SYSMO and a 5M
BBSRC SABR  award to the Universities of Warwick, Exeter and Essex,
which  will develop models of how plants cope with environmental stress.

We seek qualified candidates to contribute to the provision of
bioinformatics support for these and other projects in the Centre.

Senior Bioinformatics Engineer: Data Integration

You will develop a strong profile for WSB in data and methods
integration by implementing a core computational infrastructure,
including databases for multi-omic data types, and techniques, workflows
and data standards for linking disparate data types and modelling
software. You will be responsible for providing bioinformatics support
for ongoing collaborative projects, as well as line managing a related
junior bioinformatics  post. You will also act as WSBs representative on
the European SYSMO Data Management Group.

You should have a PhD in Bioinformatics or Computer Science or a Masters
degree with relevant experience. Experience in relational database
development in a UNIX environment (including languages such as Perl, XML
and SQL) and software engineering are essential. Previous experience of
working in a multidisciplinary environment, and managing a computational
infrastructure for a biological research group is desirable. You should
be keen to interact with biologists and willing to undertake travel to
our collaborators in Europe (Norway, Germany, Netherlands).

This is a permanent post.

Bioinformatician

You will assist in the development of a strong profile for WSB in data
management and methods integration.

You will provide bioinformatics support for ongoing collaborative
projects, including primary microarray data analysis and develop and
implement databases, user interfaces and workflows for interrogating and
linking disparate data types and modelling software.

You should have at least a Masters degree in Bioinformatics or Computer
Science, with relevant experience. Experience in microarray data
analysis and relational database development in a UNIX environment
(including languages such as Perl, XML and SQL) and software engineering
are essential. You should be keen to interact with biologists and
previous experience of working in a multidisciplinary scientific
environment is desirable.

This post is initially on a 2-year contract
