You’re kind, humble and intrinsically motivated
Considered as a plus:
ETL or ELT technologies (AWS Pipelining, Stitch, FiveTran, etc.)
Experience working with Google Content API or Adwords API

Imagine applying Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence to something that was invented in 1804. The association between cloud technology and trains has changed a lot in 200 years – from steam power all the way to Amazon Web Services.
The objective is to provide data-driven solutions to piston driven problems – through the predictive analytics of real-time and historical data on a massive scale. This is new ground, and could be one of the influential technological leaps in rail travel and freight in a very long time.
The team needs a Data Engineer to come in and dedicate themselves to the development of new data pipelines, and maintenance of old – bridging the gap between the most innovative software and hardware, and machine learning algorithms. Someone who can come in and join a collaborative team, sharing the ambitions they have to take things to the next level.
What You’ll Need
Very strong python background, developing ETL pipelines
Experience working on AWS
S3, Athena, QuickSight, EC2, Batch, Lambda, DynamoDB, Amazon ES, CloudFormation
What You’ll Get
At least 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays plus 3 privilege days over Christmas
Pension matched up to 8%
Life assurance scheme (6x salary)
Private healthcare scheme, paid for by the company (staff just pay the tax on it)

Our mission Want to make a difference in this world and work on something meaningful? At Chronomics we enable people to quantify how their environment and lifestyle is affecting their health to live healthier and happier lives… all from their DNA. We will love you because… You’re an expert coder. You love all types of data. And most of all you'r enthusiastic and get shit done. Looking for more than just building another ETL pipeline? DNA data is our currency and we have more than 100GB of it per person in the form of 3+ billion A/C/G/T’s. You will help our data scientists, bioinformaticians and developers as part of a cross functional product team transform and derive meaning from this data all the way from the raw sequencing in the lab, through various pipelines and machine learning models into something valuable and meaningful to our customers. Alongside this you will help architecture and build a more traditional data warehouse from other business data. You will get the chance to work with numerous different technologies, have a say in how we drive the company forward and learn a ton of science along the way. Essential skills: Expert coder in at least 1 language (did I hear you say python??) Experience with machine learning and associated packages Experience with big data Knowledge of data warehouse and BI tools Experience with distributed processing (Hadoop, Dusk etc) Cloud platforms (AWS) Agile development Test automation Work as part of a focused team, but at the same time self-driven and able to work independently Nice to have: Infrastructure as code (Terraform/CloudFormation) Have worked with genetics data Experience with serverless and microservices architecture Location: Bristol, London, Cambridge or part remote Start date: 1st Jan 2020 onwards Company size: 10-20 people Company type: VC funded Benefits Share options so early contributors benefit from our success. Epigenetic test!! Flexible office or home working. Macbook pro Friday pub sessions.
