About AstraZeneca

We have made great strides in creating AI and ML toolsets that will pave the way for this transformation and platforms supporting new therapeutic modalities. The next part of this journey involves enhancing our existing toolsets and building applications to maximize the value of these technologies in bringing small molecule and other therapeutic modalities (e.g., peptides, oligonucleotides, conjugates) through the pipeline.

We are looking for a strong senior full stack engineer to join our team to help build and modernize our integrated software platform supporting key Drug Discovery science.

Job Description

In this role, you will join a global team of software engineers, support engineers, and informaticians in our Augmented DMTA platform.

You will ensure best practices are followed in the ongoing software development process, balancing legacy and cutting-edge technologies, and providing innovative solutions to bridge that gap. Your ideas will be invaluable in supporting our scientific efforts.

You will also be responsible for end-to-end implementation of new applications, with expertise in surrounding technologies like cloud platforms, libraries, frameworks, etc.

Our expanding global development team is migrating towards a true DevOps model. The portfolio includes both self-developed and COTS solutions.

• Integrate new software with existing systems, influencing platform ratios and features.

• Contribute to the technical direction, ensuring tools support efficient scientific work and adapt to rapid scientific changes.

• Promote and implement modern, agile software development practices and cultivate a vibrant engineering culture.

• Mentor less experienced engineers and support their career development.

• Transform siloed systems into a cohesive ecosystem delivering excellent user experiences.

Requirements

• 5+ years in languages like Java, with ability to learn new languages quickly.

• 3+ years scripting experience (Python, Ruby, shell, etc.)

• Experience with web frameworks like Spring or Quarkus.

• 3+ years front-end skills with JavaScript, and experience with frameworks like Vue.js, React, or Angular.

• CSS skills and frameworks like Bootstrap, MUI, or TailwindCSS.

• Experience with relational and NoSQL databases (Oracle, Postgres, MongoDB, Cassandra).

• Proficiency in Unix environments.

• Strong understanding of data structures, design patterns, and antipatterns.

• Experience with cloud environments, mainly AWS.

• Good unit testing practices and architecture skills.

• CI/CD experience with tools like Jenkins, GithubActions, TravisCI.

• Data analysis skills including profiling and interpreting data structures.

• Attention to detail and adherence to standards.

• Excellent teamwork and communication skills in English.

• Critical thinking and proactive problem-solving mindset.

• Passion for engineering and continuous learning.

• Ability to select appropriate tools for tasks.
