We are seeking an enthusiastic and talented Web Developer to join our Web Development team at the European Bioinformatics Institute (EMBL-EBI), located on the Wellcome Trust Genome Campus near Cambridge in the UK.

The web applications will heavily utilize and integrate BioJS which is an open-source project whose main objective is the visualization of biological data in JavaScript. BioJS provides an easy-to-use consistent framework for bioinformatics application programmers. It follows a community-driven standard specification that includes a collection of components purposely designed to require a very simple configuration and installation. In addition to the programming framework, BioJS provides a centralized repository of components available for reutilization by the bioinformatics community.

The responsibilities of the Web Developer (MySQL, HTML5, PHP, Python, Java, JQuery) will include:

• Designing and developing a robust, testable web framework to create a portal to facilitate target validation
• Coherently integrating diverse BioJS components into the portal
• Working with developers to ensure consistency across BioJS components
• Working with scientists and UX professionals to ensure a positive user experience and an integrated display of information
• Assisting in developing and improving novel BioJS components

The post holder will be closely involved with the Centre for Therapeutic Target Validation (CTTV). The CTTV is a public-private initiative to generate evidence on the validity of therapeutic targets based on genome-scale experiments and analysis. The post holder will report to both the Web Development Team Leader and the CTTV Scientific Director.

Desired skills include:

• Highly skilled at front-end engineering using Object-Oriented JavaScript, various JavaScript libraries and micro frameworks (jQuery, Angular, Prototype, Dojo, Backbone, YUI, node.js, AJAX)
• A solid understanding of web application development processes, from the layout/user interface to relational database structures.
• 3+ years of rapid web development using modern design technologies (e.g. HTML5, CSS3, SASS, LESS, JavaScript, jQuery, Twitter Bootstrap, GIT)
• Familiarity with web technologies such as MySQL, MongoDB, XML or JSON data-driven web applications, HTTP and REST-style web services
• Experience in responsive web design and in the use of layout frameworks
• Experience in other languages such as PHP, Python, Java
• Understanding of web application security, scalability, performance, reliability and testing

As well as technical ability, you must be able to demonstrate the ability to work well with colleagues and to collaborate with external partners.
