Job Description

Description
Roche Sequencing is not only changing science, but we are changing lives. Our software teams are laying the groundwork for the future by developing powerful bioinformatics algorithms, data analysis tools, and software/systems infrastructures so researchers and clinicians can make better health decisions faster. The path to curing cancer lies in ones and zeros as we work with next-generation genomic sequencing, a new frontier. The complexity and sheer size of the data in the life sciences will make astronomical data problems look modest. Do you want to develop software products that scientists and others in the life sciences will use to diagnose, find treatments, and eventually beat diseases like cancer? Our team builds highly scalable, reliable software and secure systems for better diagnostics. Come join us! As a Senior Software Development Engineer in Test, you will design & develop automated verification tests, develop test framework & infrastructure, plan test strategies and document design history for Roche Sequencing products. You will develop cutting-edge, distributed, scale-out Next-Generation Sequencing data analysis software solution to ensure the highest possible software quality for gene sequencing research and disease diagnostics.
