BACKGROUND

The Joint BioEnergy Institute (JBEI) is a San Francisco Bay Area scientific partnership led by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab). JBEI's primary scientific mission is to advance the development of the next generation of biofuels - liquid fuels derived from the solar energy stored in plant biomass.

RESPONSIBILITIES

The Software Developer will develop and maintain innovative systems to manage metabolic pathway engineering data to support JBEI's advanced biofuels research. The Experiment Data Depot is a unique application that simplifies data collection for agile research, with sophisticated tools allowing easy comparison of diverse data sets across engineered strains. The Software Developer will interact heavily with JBEI's Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS), Electronic Lab Notebooks (ELN), and bio-engineering tools like GD-ICE (http://code.google.com/p/gd-ice/) and GLAMM (http://code.google.com/p/glamm/). The developer will collaborate extensively with lab personnel to understand the unique aspects of the workflows, and will implement new features to facilitate their work, while also addressing higher-level data mining requirements.
