The Role
- Build data integrations that pull outputs from lab instruments — spectrometers, rheometers, HPLCs and more — straight into the platform
- Write Python to parse, validate and transform scientific data files across every format imaginable
- Work directly with customer technical teams — map their schemas, deliver clean, well-documented integrations
- Feed integration patterns back to core engineering to be built into the product itself
- Own your work end to end — build it, ship it, see exactly what it changed. No layer of process between your code and the scientist who depends on it
What We're Looking For
- 0–2 years as a software engineer with strong technical fundamentals
- A Bachelor's in Computer Science (Strong University eg Oxford Cambridge etc..)
- Python as your primary language
- Hands‑on with REST APIs, SQL databases, and Excel/CSV data pipelines
- (nice to have) A genuine pull towards science — studied chemistry, family in the space, an internship at a chemical company, or another clear marker
- Bonus: exposure to lab environments, scientific instrumentation or research data flows, plus prior time at a startup or fast-paced technical team
