At Lifebit, we carve our own path. Trusted by Governments and world-leading pharma institutions and funded with over $60m, we are on a mission to harness the power of connected data and bring precision medicine to life globally. The key to saving human lives is providing researchers across the globe with the right data to develop more precise drugs faster. Generating large amounts of biomedical data has become relatively straightforward. The challenge now is finding, accessing and analysing this sensitive data stored across thousands of disconnected locations. It is frustrating and painfully difficult for researchers. Lifebit has created a patented, federated technology that brings analysis and computation to where data resides. This enables researchers to run analyses on multiple, distributed datasets in-situ, avoiding the risky movement of highly-sensitive data. Lifebit powers pioneers in national precision medicine such as Genomics England (UK Government) and guides them on how to make their valuable data usable securely. Biotech and pharma leaders like Boehringer Ingelheim turn to Lifebit to connect them to this otherwise locked up data to obtain novel therapeutic insights. Our technology is unmatched and momentum is on our side - but we need an exceptionally strong team to help boost Lifebit to incredible new heights. As a Solutions Architect in our team: This is an exciting opportunity to join Lifebit's growing User Success team. Your broad responsibilities will include: owning engagement with a diverse group of users across industries; creating user documentation and webinar videos, performing platform demonstrations for clients and users, support client managers, on-boarding clients and developing existing solutions to streamline internal/external processes, and developing a deep expertise in industry best practices and workflows in bioinformatics technologies and how they are applied on cloud or on-premise HPC infrastructures. In addition to this, you will also have the following responsibilities: Train and onboard users to use Lifebit products Provide platform, analysis, programming and technical (Bioinformatics/infrastructure/genomics) user support. Collaborate with colleagues in Product, Commercial and Executive teams to shape user success strategy. You will provide exceptional technical knowledge, problem solving and thought leadership in Bioinformatics, while working to make researchers from Pharmaceutical, academia and private healthcare companies successful. Lead and create Lifebit product webinars. Update and develop user facing documentation. Coordinate with Product to drive platform changes based on user and client requirements. Gather insights and experiences from every user and client to feed it to the rest of the team. Keep up to date with best practices and latest developments in bioinformatics, cloud, and multi-omics. Identify, research, and qualify new areas of growth within the Lifebit products and services. Present, promote and sell Lifebit's solutions to prospective customers at conferences and events Engage with developers, system administrators, software architects, project managers, directors, and C-level clients to architect, define and implement unique and complex solutions that meet customer requirements. Be able to map out products and services as well as their inter-dependencies to realize clients' visions and business needs. You will gain the opportunity to learn from, collaborate with, and educate some of the brightest technical minds in the industry today across the breadth of genomics and bioinformatics. The role requirements below are just an indication of what we're looking for - sometimes the perfect candidate is far more or less experienced than we anticipated. If you think that might be your case, please reach out and let us know! We are looking for a Solutions Architect (Junior Role) who has: Intermediate knowledge of bioinformatics and/or cloud computing infrastructure and/or genomics A Masters OR PhD in Bioinformatics/Computational Biology, Statistical Genetics and/or Genomic Medicine. Advanced programming skills in R, Python and/or Bash Experience building a pipeline with a workflow management system, ideally Nextflow A desire to work hands-on with research scientists, academics, software engineers, and clients to solve challenges in the world of Genomics and Precision Medicine.
