Foster City, CA (Next to San Mateo): full-time or part-time contractor, remote a possibility
=========================================================================
SVBio (<a href="http://svbio.com/" >) is looking for the most talented full-stack software engineer for contract work, with experience and understanding of web architecture design and implementation, following best and up-to-date practices. The work will further enhance the application of our clinical-grade genome interpretation engine. As leaders in the field, we drive the vision of the genome-interpretation product down to the last detail - only modern browsers are supported here!
Knowledge of some specific technologies is greatly desired (see below), but not necessarily required for the right hacker.  Knowledge of javascript is a must, as well as the desire to write clean and maintainable code.   Knowledge of the genome and next-generation-sequencing technologies is really nice to have, but definitely not required.  SVBio is a tightly-knit organization with people from many diverse disciplines and backgrounds, so being an all-around friendly person is a must. Strong preference will be given to candidates that can be on site.
Anyone who is interested should contact me (Edolfo - elicudine -A-T- svbio.com) directly with your background, a resume/c.v., some previous work samples, a github link, whatever you think might help me out.
---Preferable knowledge/experience---
- Significant proven experience, both in frontend and backend technologies.
- Dynamic frontends (angular.js, angular-ui, JQuery, d3.js, require.js)
- Advanced backend architectures (node.js, express, mongoose)
- Scalable persistency layers (HDFS, Postgres, mysql, mongodb)
- Production level coding (grunt.js)
-- Additional valuable experience:
- Script master (e.g., python, perl)
