<h2>The Team</h2> CZI and its Biohub Network supports the science and technology that will make it possible to help scientists cure, prevent, or manage all diseases by the end of this century. While this may seem like an audacious goal, in the last 100 years, biomedical science has made tremendous strides in understanding biological systems, advancing human health, and treating disease.  Achieving our mission will only be possible if scientists are able to better understand human biology. To that end, we have identified four grand challenges that will unlock the mysteries of the cell and how cells interact within systems — paving the way for new discoveries that will change medicine in the decades that follow: <ul> <li>Building an AI-based virtual cell model to predict and understand cellular behavior</li> <li>Developing novel imaging technologies to map, measure and model complex biological systems  </li> <li>Creating new tools for sensing and directly measuring inflammation within tissues in real time.tissues to better understand inflammation, a key driver of many diseases</li> <li>Harnessing the immune system for early detection, prevention, and treatment of disease</li> </ul> Our <a href="http://www.chanzuckerberg.com/science">work in science</a> is focused on doing fundamental research to better understand human biology and building the tools and technology that move science forward to prevent disease and get to cures faster.. Join us in accelerating science. <h2>The Opportunity</h2> Join a dynamic team within CZI’s Science Initiative focused on building user-facing applications that empower computational biologists and researchers through scalable, flexible, and intelligent workflows. This team plays a key role in accelerating scientific discovery by developing generalized tools that integrate machine learning services, human-in-the-loop capabilities, and customizable data processing. Our mission is to unify the diverse functionalities and resources available across the broader organization — from data services to inference pipelines — into a cohesive platform that supports both internal collaborators and the broader scientific community. Whether users are bringing their own datasets, leveraging CZI tools, or customizing their processing pipelines, this role offers the chance to shape how cutting-edge science is conducted. <h2>What Youll Do</h2> <ul> <li>Design, develop, and maintain scalable full-stack web applications that power research workflows across scientific domains.</li> <li>Collaborate closely with scientists, product managers, and other engineers to build intuitive, flexible user interfaces and backend services.</li> <li>Integrate diverse services and tools — including ML inference pipelines, human-in-the-loop interfaces, and data management systems — into a cohesive platform.</li> <li>Ensure high standards of code quality, performance, and maintainability through code reviews, testing, and automation.</li> <li>Drive architectural decisions and contribute to long-term technical planning to support extensibility and scale.</li> <li>Build systems that enable researchers to bring their own data, customize processing, and adapt workflows to their unique needs.</li> <li>Partner with infrastructure and platform teams to ensure seamless deployment, observability, and operational stability of services.</li> </ul> <h2>What Youll Bring</h2> <ul> <li>7+ years of professional experience developing full-stack web applications with modern front-end frameworks (e.g., React) and backend technologies (e.g., Node.js, Python).</li> <li>Proven ability to design and implement scalable APIs and data-driven applications.</li> <li>Expert knowledge of computer science, with strong competencies in data structures, algorithms, and software design.</li> <li>Familiarity with infrastructure concepts such as containerization (Docker), orchestration (Kubernetes), and CI/CD practices.</li> <li>Experience integrating or building around AI/ML services, especially in application layers involving inference or interactive AI tools.</li> <li>Nice-to-have: a background or familiarity with biology, computational biology, or scientific workflows or a strong interest in learning quickly about the field.</li> <li>A product mindset with attention to user experience, performance, and extensibility.</li> <li>Strong collaboration skills with a history of working cross-functionally with technical and non-technical stakeholders.</li> <li>Curiosity, flexibility, and a desire to work in a mission-driven, rapidly evolving environment.</li> </ul> <h2>Compensation</h2> The Redwood City, CA base pay range for a new hire in this role is 190,000 - $261,800. New hires are typically hired into the lower portion of the range, enabling employee growth in the range over time. Actual placement in range is based on job-related skills and experience, as evaluated throughout the interview process.  <h2>Better Together</h2> As we grow, we’re excited to strengthen in-person connections and cultivate a collaborative, team-oriented environment. This role is a hybrid position requiring you to be onsite for at least 60% of the working month, approximately 3 days a week, with specific in-office days determined by the team’s manager. The exact schedule will be at the hiring managers discretion and communicated during the interview process. <h2>Benefits for the Whole You </h2> We’re thankful to have an incredible team behind our work. To honor their commitment, we offer a wide range of benefits to support the people who make all we do possible.  <ul> <li>CZI provides a generous employer match on employee 401(k) contributions to support planning for the future.</li> <li>Annual benefit for employees that can be used most meaningfully for them and their families, such as housing, student loan repayment, childcare, commuter costs, or other life needs.</li> <li>CZI Life of Service Gifts are awarded to employees to “live the mission” and support the causes closest to them.</li> <li>Paid time off to volunteer at an organization of your choice. </li> <li>Funding for select family-forming benefits. </li> <li>Relocation support for employees who need assistance moving to the Bay Area</li> <li><a href="https://chanzuckerberg.com/careers/#benefits">And more</a>!</li> </ul> If you’re interested in a role but your previous experience doesn’t perfectly align with each qualification in the job description, we still encourage you to apply as you may be the perfect fit for this or another role.
