Transcriptic: Core Developer or Automation Engineer
Transcriptic is the "Amazon Web Services" for life sciences.  Rather than carry out wet-lab experiments by hand, researchers can code up (or visually configure) their experimental protocols and then run them in Transcriptic's central, highly automated 'biocenter' in an on-demand way.  Customers have no upfront capital costs and pay for only what they use.  Life science research today is incredibly slow, error-prone, monotonous, and expensive with researchers spending many hours a day every day just moving small volumes of liquids from one place to another.  We're building a long-term company to completely change the way life science research and development is done.
We're looking for highly talented full-stack web developers as well as combined background EE/CS engineers for automation integration and development.
We're a very small startup (you'd be #3), but well funded and have customers.  You'd be able to work on interesting science and hard technology in a really small, all technical team with lots of freedom and resources.
A biology background is preferred but not strictly necessary for outstanding people.  The codebase is mostly Ruby and Scala, with some Python.
