## Description

Staff Data Scientist/Steward or Software Developer (f/m/d) to facilitate the development of ProteomicsDB
with a good background in bioinformatics, data visualization, big data analytics at best in the context of mass spectrometry.

ProteomicsDB (https://www.proteomicsdb.org/) is an internationally well-reputed publicly available database that provides information about proteins and other bio-molecules initially centered around human biology.
It is designed to integrate data from mass spectrometry-based experiments and other sources to offer a comprehensive view of proteomes. We (https://www.mls.ls.tum.de/en/compms/home/) are continuously expanding the types of data stored in as well as the number of organisms covered. Researchers and scientists can use ProteomicsDB to explore and analyze protein-related data for a better understanding of cellular processes, functions, and disease mechanisms. ProteomicsDB is built on the in-memory system SAP HANA using IBM Power 8/9 hardware.

The successful candidate will become a key member of a strong interdisciplinary team of bioinformatician that focus on the development and application of novel approaches in proteomic research. Specifically, the successful applicant will assist the recently funded NHPig (https://www.nhpig.eu/) project, an EU-funded research project aimed at transforming non-clinical safety assessment by use of mini- and micropig models. Depending on the applicant's skills, this position will strengthen our ongoing development of ProteomicsDB focusing on the backend or frontend development in combination with data management. In light of this, the most important aspects of the job description are:

 * Service engineering and infrastructure maintenance for ProteomicsDB
 * Full-stack development to enhance ProteomicsDB
 * Data import, maintenance, and integration of e.g. proteomics, lipidomics, or metabolomics data, The position is initially limited until December 2028 and available as soon as possible. Remuneration is in accordance with the TV-L E13 according to the professional qualification.
