We are looking for a software developer to join a team of
molecular and computational biologists to contribute to cutting
edge scientific research at one of Australia's leading medical

inform and guide new medical research.

We have a great team environment that values flexibility and

technologies enable molecular biologists to produce exponentially
increasing amounts of data.

but have a strong bias towards Python, C++, HTML/AJAX, WSGI and
open source software.

To be considered, you should have:

- B.Sc. or an equivalent, with a background in one of computing,
   mathematics, statistics or biology areas an advantage
- Experience with programming and databases, preferably in
   python and web based application development
- Strong problem solving skills and interest in working in a
   research environment
- Strong interpersonal and communication skills

Appointment level and salary will depend on qualifications and
previous experience. Up to 17% superannuation and very attractive
salary packaging options are available.
