About Immunai:

Immunai is an engineering-first platform company aiming to improve therapeutic decision-making throughout the drug discovery and development process. We are mapping the immune system at unprecedented scale and granularity and applying machine learning to this massive clinico-immune database, in order to generate novel insights into disease pathology for our partners – pharma companies and research institutes. We provide a comprehensive, end-to-end solution – from data generation and curation to therapeutics development, that continuously supports and validates the capabilities of our platform.

As drug development is becoming increasingly inefficient, our ultimate goal is to help bring breakthrough medicines to patients as quickly and successfully as possible.

Immunai is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees.

About the role:

The Metadata Developers Team, part of the Immunai Software group, focuses on advanced tools and solutions to retrieve, store, handle, and analyze complex descriptive biological data, such as laboratory and clinical metadata, with extensive use of domain ontologies. In close collaboration with Immunai’s biocurators and biology experts, we are continuously advancing our technology and data models to improve the consistency and descriptive power of our vast clinical database, as well as the usability and accessibility of data that feed the company’s most advanced algorithms for therapeutic decision-making and discovery.

As a Data Engineer at Immunai, you will specialize in designing, building, and maintaining top-notch, scalable data pipelines and software solutions for biological data and clinical metadata, ensuring robust and resilient data flows and processes, as well as a smooth integration of different data sources.
