We have two open positions for
Scientific Software Developers/Programmers (m/f)
to add to our creative and interdisciplinary research team at the Max-Planck Institute for Cell Biology and Genetics in Dresden. We develop methods and algorithms for image-based systems biology by applying and further developing cutting edge approaches that make use of various graphical modeling, optimization and machine learning techniques. Our work also includes the development of convenient and reusable user interfaces that are capable of dealing with gigabytes and terabytes of image data. All our tools are developed as open-source, and provided to the community through the Fiji and KNIME projects.
Responsibilities include:
We seek an open-minded and motivated personality to help shape the future software tools for bio-image analysis and put our algorithms at the fingertips of users world wide. Your responsibility would include maintaining our various open-source tools, turning research codes into user-friendly software packages, and writing user interfaces. Last but not least, you are expected to become (or already be) an active member of the open-source community around Fiji, ImageJ, and KNIME.
Requirements:
Applicants are expected to have a M.Sc. degree or PhD in Computer Science, Scientific Computing, Software Engineering, Physics, or related areas. Excellent programming skills are required. Most of our codes are written in Java, but we also develop in Python and C/C++. Experience with CUDA and/or OpenCL is helpful. Excellent command of the English language and the ability to work independently and communicate across discipline boundaries are required. The working language is English.
