We are looking for a computational biologist to work with a team of software developers, bioinformaticians and statisticians on a variety of tasks related to the data management infrastructure for the SIROCCO consortium (http://www.sirocco-project.eu/) in the Functional Genomics group at the EBI.
The data manager will play a key role in dialoguing between software engineers and users of our data management system and ensuring successful delivery of a multi-module IT system to the consortium.
The main responsibilities will include:
• establishing and maintaining a multi-component system for data exchange and collaborative analysis within the project;
• analysis of technical requirements for software customization;
• design of standard operating procedures for data annotation and management;
• user training and support.
The post holder is also expected to contribute to software development activities.
The EBI, part of the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL), is a world-leading bioinformatics centre providing biological data to the scientific community with expertise in data storage, analysis and representation. The Functional Genomics Group at the EBI is coordinating the informatics for a number of collaborative European projects in epidemiology and molecular biology. We contribute to those projects by providing data collection, validation, storage and integration infrastructure.
