Senior Full Stack Engineer

Sr Full Stack Engineer

At Twist Bioscience, we serve people who are changing the world for the better. In fields such as health care, agriculture, industrial chemicals, and data storage, our unique silicon-based DNA Synthesis Platform provides precision at a scale that is otherwise unavailable to our customers.

Unlike other manufacturing operations, nearly every order item is unique - bringing unique challenges. Full-Stack Engineers work on mission-critical systems, in close collaboration with end users to build the software that helps run our highly customized production pipeline. Full Stack Engineers have both ownership and impact - creating robust and scalable frameworks that enable Twist to introduce new products and processes into its operations rapidly. Devs are encouraged to question the status quo and problem-solve issues that directly affect our 24x7 operations.

We are an energetic, focused team of coders and architects who enjoy solving hard problems at the forefront of synthetic biology. Twist's products drive advancements in drug discovery, immunological research, genetic engineering, and ultra-long-term data storage. We're looking for curious, motivated software developers ready to engage these challenges. If this sounds interesting, we would love to hear from you.

What You'll Be Doing:

• Work with stakeholders and designers to define user-friendly and intuitive web applications for eCommerce and lab management systems.

• Participate in requirements gathering, technical specification, and the design and development of software for Twist's suite of applications and user-facing features.

• Develop, test, deploy, and monitor your code through all stages of the software development lifecycle.

• Promote software engineering best practices via example, participation in code reviews, building tools, and documentation.

• Agile, iterative development workflow with continuous delivery.

• Support your applications and/or services as and when required on a 24x7 basis. (after-hours work is rare - but sometimes duty calls)

What You'll Bring to the Team:

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or equivalent.

• Front end work

• Minimum of 5+ years of experience delivering commercial cloud-based software applications with rich UIs that scale gracefully across different browsers and devices.

• Self-starter with a strong work ethic and desire to write readable and maintainable code.

• Thorough understanding of software development methodologies, principles and procedures, and related software management tools. Understanding CI/CD is a plus.

• Experience with React/Redux, HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript, and fundamental web technologies like REST.

• Ability to work on the full stack with backend technologies comprising Node.js, Python, and some C#.

• A good understanding of DevOps procedures and tools (k8s, AWS)

• Working knowledge of Git and familiarity with the GitHub workflow

• Experience working with databases - Postgres, MySQL, and MongoDB.

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
