Oferta para bioinformático (Alemania)

To collaborate with the research scientists in our group to investigate genetic and phenotypic diversity and the processes that shape this variation in wild and crop plants. We also develop approaches for utilizing this diversity in plant breeding. A major challenge is to model the complex nature of different data types and to implement software pipelines for a rapid analysis of modern sequencing and phenotyping data in a high performance computing environment.

Tasks include to contribute to the development of our infrastructure for data management and analysis, and the analysis of genomic (sequencing) and phenotypic data (e.g., from image analysis). We expect that the post holder also works independently on a scientific subproject. Further tasks are administration of our scientific software in collaboration with system administrators and facilitating the use of the available high performance computing infrastructure by our group.

We look for applicants with a Bachelor or Master-level degree in bioinformatics or a related field. A basic familiarity with current tools for sequence analysis, statistical analysis (e.g., R) and programming skills in a relevant language (e.g., Python) in a UNIX environment are required.  The position also requires very good organization, communication and team-working skills and we expect an independent working style.

The position is available immediately until 30 November 2016 and paid according to the E13 TV-L government salary scale.  We seek to extend the position beyond this period. The University of Hohenheim is an equal opportunity employer. Women and members of minority groups are strongly encouraged to apply. The University of Hohenheim is located on a beautiful campus in the South German city of Stuttgart, which has a very good cultural life and a nice surrounding.
