Software Engineer Job Opening in Westminster, Colorado - About Us
Flagship Biosciences, Inc. is the world leader in image analysis pathology services. With advanced techniques centered around automated analysis of whole-slide microscope imagery processed on a cutting-edge, high-performance computing platform, Flagship analysts, scientists, and pathologists work with terabyte-scale image data to provide critical biological insight. Flagship develops its analytic and infrastructural technology in-house, providing truly unique capabilities not available anywhere else in the market.
The TALIS Team
Embedded within the larger company, the TALIS product team is responsible for developing software to enable Flagship?s unique operational capabilities. Founded with the mandate to replace legacy software infrastructure with a modern HPC architecture, the small team has grown to include engineers experienced in real time graphics, distributed systems, interactive web applications, and high-performance computing.
With a lean project management methodology, the team is organized to rapidly respond to changing operational requirements and deliver precisely the necessary software in time to capitalize on market opportunity. This agility must be accomplished without sacrificing software quality or regulatory accountability.
The TALIS Project
The TALIS Project is an umbrella project composed of many modules implemented using a variety of technologies. The project is intended to provide Flagship?s entire image analysis and data management infrastructure, enabling Flagship computer vision scientists to develop next-generation image analysis algorithms.
TALIS is built on the principle of using the right tool for the right job, with modules written using appropriate enabling technology, ensuring that tooling for each module is fit to purpose. The project includes a Windows desktop application, a browser-based JavaScript application, and several UNIX server applications.
The software is developed in C++, JavaScript, and Python. GitLab and JIRA are also utilized. Some enabling technology used includes: Linux, SLURM, and OpenGL.
What we need
The TALIS team has an immediate need for an expert JavaScript application programmer to take over development of our HPC front-end application. This front-end application implements a visual data processing language allowing Flagship analysts to easily specify complex analysis pipelines and data dependencies. This is a core feature of the TALIS system.
The front-end application is developed in modern JavaScript. Since it is for internal use, the application is supported only on very recent versions of Chrome and Firefox. An OrientDB document store is used to serve JSON documents, reducing the impedance mismatch between JavaScript and persistence services.
An ideal candidate for this position would have experience with both front-end JavaScript application development and Python back-end development. We also highly value experience in high-performance computing, programming language , and distributed systems.
