GSK is a global biopharma company with a purpose to unite science, technology and talent to get ahead of disease together. We aim to positively impact the health of 2.5 billion people over the next 10 years.
The CMC Applied Data Science (CADS) group is responsible for all areas of data science, computational science and modelling to support technical development of new vaccines and drugs products at GSK. Our responsibilities include analysis & modelling of molecular structure data, analysis of complex high-dimensional biological datasets (bioinformatics and genomics), AI/ML applications in process/product development, chemometrics and analysis of spectral data generated by a vast array of instruments, as well as modelling of production processes. Within CADS, the Scientific Software Engineering (SSE) team develops professional, validated tools to make the data science innovations developed in CADS available to the community of scientists in R&D.
As a Senior Data Science Software Developer in SSE, you will be part of a cross-functional team, mixing knowledge of science and programming to facilitate the access to data science tools to scientists within R&D. You will talk directly with scientists in the lab to understand their needs, and implement professional (and sometimes validated) software solutions to meet them. You will also work closely with experts in data management, AI/ML, bioinformatics, statistics or other fields of data science to help them translate their algorithms and solutions into reliable pieces of code.
