Best, Simon Podhajsky *Job Description* The Joint Neuroscience Program between SRI International and the Department of Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences, Stanford University, is seeking a Software Engineer who will contribute to the development and maintenance of a data management system supporting multi-modal, large-scale data of multi-center neuroscience studies. The engineer will interface with imaging and computer scientists to scale up the software platform ( https://sibis.sri.com) from supporting a single study to several projects simultaneously. This will require creating robust monitoring systems of backend and frontend, designing and performing stress tests, configuring databases and Docker containers, and developing processing pipelines and web-interfaces for data collection, analysis, and distribution. This position provides the opportunity for the applicant to participate in state-of-the-art software system development within a multi-disciplinary team, whose goal is to advances computational science aimed at identifying biomedical phenotypes for the detection, mechanistic understanding, and treatment of neuropsychiatric disorders. The Neuroscience Program is federally funded to perform multidisciplinary and translational research focusing on substance abuse, sleep, HIV, and adolescent brain development by combing state-of-the-art neuropsychological testing with imaging technology. Imaging studies are performed on MR imaging systems at the SRI site and in collaboration with other centers, such as the National Consortium on Alcohol and Neurodevelopment in Adolescence (NCANDA) and NIH’s Big Data to Knowledge (BD2K) initiative. The program is interdisciplinary and consists of clinicians, computer scientists, physicists, psychologists, and statisticians, with appointments at SRI International or Stanford. It is a family-like environment with excellent work-life balance. The lab is located a 5-minute walk from the Caltrain. *Location(s)* Menlo Park, CA *Qualifications* - Bachelor or Masters in computer science or related field. - At least 5 years of experience in software development on Linux platforms - Excellent coding skills in Python - Hands-on experience with Docker containers and REST APIs (e.g., via pyxnat and PyCap) is preferred. - Experience in developing scalable backends, monitoring of database-driven web services, and frontend development. - Hands-on experience in database management, preferably with MySQL and PostgreSQL ------------------------------------------ The Carpentries: discuss Permalink: https://carpentries.topicbox.com/groups/discuss/T9b96044dcc91ff81-M0a65ddacc7f8f493991911bf Delivery options: https://carpentries.topicbox.com/groups
