Full Stack Developer — Data Science Specialist (Internship to Permanent)

Didyou know that every year, millions of forensic case samples go unprocessed dueto poor sample collection and inefficient DNA analysis? This backlog deniesjustice to countless victims and their families.

With over 25years of experience in forensic genetic analysis, we founded Biosecure ID totackle these challenges. Our mission is to enhance efficiency, ensurereliability and reproducibility, reduce overall costs, and develop simple touse integrated solutions for forensic analysis to make them accessible andaffordable to labs worldwide. Recognizing that no single company could offerall the necessary tools and solutions, we created Biosecure ID as a strategicplatform to incubate new ideas ("Innovation"), make workflow solutionsaccessible to end-users ("Value Added Reselling"), and supportlaboratories and scientists globally in implementing technologies withconfidence ("Enabling Services").

To fill gapsin the market, we partnered with Gentueri Inc for sample collection andworkflow solutions, Innogenomics Inc for specialized forensic DNA sampleprocessing, Paragon Genomics Inc for amplicon-based next-generation sequencing(NGS) panels, and with LabVine – an online learning and development platformwith over 16,000 professionals registered globally with a view to promote theirexisting courses and to develop new content for Applied Genetics and GenomicsLab professionals. Our comprehensive servicesinclude training, consultancy, validation and verification, automation, andturnkey projects, with a particular focus on the Global South, where support ismost needed.

In addition,Biosecure ID supports Science for Social Good CIC ( https://ssg-cic.org ), a UK-based non-profitcompany dedicated to advancing applied genetics through open-source softwaredevelopment (AGOSS® Platform), developing vocational training programmes incountries where knowledge gaps are most visible, raising awareness andeducation about DNA testing, standardizing sexual assault kits globally, andadvocating for DNA as a biometric modality through the Future of BiometricsConsortium in collaboration with the Cambridge, UK-based Centre for BusinessInnovation (CfBI).

We believeour small contribution through collaboration and sharing knowledge will be a signficant drop in the ocean, making a meaningful difference in the world offorensic science and applied genetics.Reach us at https://biosecureid.com for moreinformation.

Full Stack Developer — Data Science Specialist (Internship to Permanent)

Biosecure ID Limited (BSID) is a forensic biotechnology company based at Alderley Park, Macclesfield, UK, working at the intersection of forensic genomics, molecular diagnostics, and open science. BSID is the commercial arm behind Science for Social Good CIC, the parent body of AGOSS (Applied Genomics Open-Source Software), our open-source bioinformatics community.

Biosecure ID Limited (BSID) is looking for one of its first employees: a Full Stack Developer to become our IT Lead. This is a builder's role at a genuine start-up — you'll set up and run our back-end technology stack, stand up MVPs with real deployment timelines, and act as the technical backbone for BSID and our open-source community, AGOSS (Applied Genomics Open-Source Software). You'll work directly with the founding team and external partners (Microsoft, ZOHO, AWS, and bioinformatics companies) to take ideas from concept to launch, fast.

Term: This role begins as a paid 3-month internship (pay details to be discussed, based on location). Successful completion leads to an offer of permanent employment. You would be one of BSID's first employees — a genuine founding role with the scope and responsibility that comes with it.

What You'll Do

• Act as BSID's Data Science Specialist — own our technology stack end to end, as employee #1
• Own AWS architecture — design, deploy, and launch MVPs for trial.
• Lead administration during early phase
• Work directly with external partners (Microsoft, ZOHO, Salesforce, Amazon (AWS), and third-party bioinformatics companies) to develop and launch new products, with fast turnaround and disciplined document control
• Manage and provide back-end support for our open-source community, AGOSS
• Apply data science and AI methods (R, R Shiny, and related platforms) to real product and research problems
• Administer and configure Microsoft Office and ZOHO (all apps), and act as development lead on the back end
• Document your work in detail as you go — decisions, architecture, and processes, not just code

Requirements

• Genuine start-up mentality — comfortable with ambiguity, wearing many hats, and moving fast
• Enjoys experimenting, and documents what you try in enough detail that others can follow it
• Takes ownership: sees problems through to a working solution rather than handing them off
• Strong problem-solver with a bias toward getting things done
• Entrepreneurial, with a builder mindset — you want to make things exist, not just plan them
• Committed to ongoing learning and development
• Believes in open source and open science as a matter of principle, not just practice

Knowledge, Skills & Qualifications

• Ideally UK-based and UK Passport holders
• Fresh Graduates (0-1 year) from Accredited UK Universities with BA, BSc, BTech, BEng in Computer Science, Mathematics or Data Science. Academic achievement of 2-1 or higher. No diplomas or online certificates.
• Efficient coding skills (range of languages, tools and AI-assisted pathways)
• Strong administrator-level knowledge of Microsoft Office and ZOHO (all apps), and able to act as development lead on the ZOHO back end
• Full AWS administration and architecture experience, with a track record of launching MVPs for trial
• Proficient in R and R Shiny, plus familiarity with other data science platforms
• A strong academic foundation in mathematics and physics (assessed during screening)
• A solid grounding in AI and AI-based solutions
• Knowledge of biology and bioinformatics is beneficial but not essential
• A genuine belief in open source and open science

All of the above will be evaluated during the screening and project task stages of the interview process.

Interview Process

• BSID 360 Evaluation
• Project Task
• HR Interview & Logistics
• Welcome to Biosecure ID

What we offer once you complete your 3-month internship and move into the permanent role:

• Equity: a real stake in what you help build, not just a paycheck
• Ownership from day one — you'll lead real projects, not shadow someone else's
• Support for your professional record: time and backing to publish papers, file patents, or co-author inventions that come out of your work here
• Room to build in the open — we encourage contributions to open-source tools, including AGOSS, and we'll credit the people behind the work, not just the company
• A genuine learning budget — courses, certifications, conferences, whatever helps you get better at the problem in front of you
• Flexibility — flexible hours and hybrid/remote arrangements wherever the lab work allows it
• Honest, generous time off, and transparency about where the company stands, so trust isn't something we ask you to take on faith
• Health insurance, because good work shouldn't come at the cost of your health
• Proximity to impact — your work reaches an actual forensic case, an actual diagnosis, and helps prevent future pandemic
