Overview
You will be working closely with our bioengineers to design and implement our computer aided design and manufacturing (CAD/CAM) platform. Work includes programming robots to build metabolic pathways and new genomes, automating testing and measurement platforms, and implementing gene and pathway design algorithms. You don’t need previous biology experience; Ginkgo is a great environment for amazing programmers to learn to hack biology.
Ginkgo’s programming languages of choice are Ruby, Python, and DNA, but you must be someone who loves writing elegant code in any language. Most importantly, you should be passionate about making biology the next engineering discipline. The 20th century was all about bits and computers made that possible. The 21st century is all about atoms and Ginkgo organisms will make it possible.
