Full-Stack Software Engineer
Programmable DNA, the software of Life, is finally here! Twist Bioscience is developing a disruptive Synthetic DNA technology that will change the world, enabling widespread health and sustainability. Synthetic biologists will use our products to engineer how organisms produce cures to diseases, make everyday chemicals by using the atmosphere as the carbon source, enable plants to make their own fertilizers, and to create in-vivo diagnostics that alert us when we are sick, and many more applications. Twist offers bleeding-edge DNA synthesis technology that produces the most accurate DNA sequences in the world. Software engineers at Twist use a diverse stack of languages and frameworks to build the interfaces and services that support a dynamic laboratory production pipeline. Our systems manage and coordinate Twist's proprietary synthesis hardware as well as a fleet of industry-standard instruments and the teams of human operators who use them. Unlike other manufacturing operations, every order is different and every order item is unique, bringing unique challenges. Full-Stack Engineers work on mission-critical systems, in close collaboration with end users, to build the software that helps run our highly customized production pipeline. Full Stack Engineers have both ownership and impact - creating robust and scalable frameworks that enable Twist to rapidly introduce new products and processes into its operations. You will be encouraged to question the status quo and problem solve issues that directly affect our 24x7 operations. We are an energetic, focused team of coders and architects who enjoy solving hard problems at the forefront of synthetic biology.
