Our systems power web sites, clinics across the UK, secure analytics and research systems, pipelines that process highly sensitive health and genetic data, and we are continuing to grow our engineering capability to support this ambition. We are looking for a Full-Stack Senior Software Engineer to join our cross-functional Biosamples squad. You'll help design, build and run the systems that support how we manage biosamples and their associated operations and logistics, from the collection of samples through to their processing by our laboratory partners.

The software helps our teams track and manage samples, maintain a clear chain of custody and understand the information returned as samples are processed.
