Senior Developer’s x 2

Applications are invited for 2 x Senior Developer's at the Bennett Institute.

We are a team of software developers, academics, and clinicians, all pooling skills and knowledge to build platforms and tools as well as traditional academic papers. Our vision is to make it easy and enjoyable to do secure, reproducible clinical analytics, and to radically democratise research access to the globally-important datasets hosted within the NHS. We are now looking to improve and expand the platform, expanding high-impact research that processes confidential data for years to come, within and outside the NHS.

We are seeking an experienced software developer with an interest in web application development or infrastructure engineering. Your role will revolve around designing, implementing and maintaining essential features, data structures and protocols that power the OpenSAFELY platform. You will work with the rest of your team to build the software system and improve user experience by writing documentation and tooling.

You will be formally based in the Radcliffe Primary Care Building, Nuffield Department of Primary Care Health Sciences, Woodstock Road, Oxford, OX2 6GG as your normal place of work, but you will be able to agree a pattern of regular remote working with your line manager.

The position is funded for three years in the first instance.
