We have two open positions for a Software Engineer and a Scientific Database Curator in my team here at the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI) in Hinxton, Cambridge, UK.
We are looking for a scientific database annotator to work on the ChEBI (Chemical Entities of Biological Interest) project. The aim of this project is to provide a high-quality, hand-curated chemistry database to the biomedical community, to standardise chemical and biochemical terminology across biological databases and to develop a chemical ontology.
The EBI has recently acquired a large scale drug discovery database (www.ebi.ac.uk/Information/News/pdf/Press23July08.pdf) which will be partly integrated into ChEBI.
The software engineer we are looking for will re-architect the existing ChEBI software to allow the smooth integration of this newly acquired dataset. (S)he will provide technical leadership in a closely cooperating team of software engineers and scientific curators and will be involved in all aspects of development including internet applications, database management systems and data analysis.
