Job title:
Grow Your Karma with a Job that Does Good! Perl role in Australia

Company name: Perl Jobs by Perl Careers

Location: Canberra ACT, Australia

Pay rate: Depending on experience

Terms of employment: Salaried employee

Hours: Full time

Onsite: yes

Description:
From Small Seeds, Great Things Grow

Not all jobs are created equal. Sure,
most pay the bills, but some do more. They impart a sense of purpose; when
you log out at day’s end, it’s with the satisfaction that you are part of
something bigger, something more important than yourself. You’ve left the
world a little better than you found it, and isn’t that what life is really
about?

If you’re nodding, you might be the person our client is searching
for. This organization is on the cutting edge of developing and delivering
genomics and IT tools to improve crop performance and natural resource
utilization. The information they process about crops is used to develop
new species of plants and to profile micro-organisms. With their help, food
security can be established around the world through the creation of new,
pest-resistant crops and plant strains so basically… you’re contributing to
curing world hunger. Hello, heroes and heroines!

We should mention, this
client is located in Canberra, Australia and given the current state of the
world (pandemic, grumble grumble) this one’s for those who are already Down
Under. Your new office is ideally situated on a university campus (think
pizza, drinks with pals, and maybe a work-out to burn off that extra
pepperoni). And hey, if the in-person vibes aren’t for you, they offer the
opportunity for remote work after six months onsite.

Karma kings and
queens saying, “Sign me up!” will need to have strong Perl skills and an
interest in genome technology and bioinformatics. Familiar with modern
tooling, you may have experience with Ansible, AWS, and Linux containers.

Let’s hear it, Aussies: who wants to fix the world one seed at a time?
Email to let us know you’re ready to send your karma meter into overdrive!

Desired skills:
Required:

    Excellent Modern Perl skills, ideally with Dancer
    At
least some familiarity with JavaScript on the front-end
    An openness to
learning new things – there’s a learning curve regarding the domain
knowledge, but they’ll be happy to teach you

**Nice to have:**

   
MariaDB and Postgres
    Exposure to biological and/or GIS data analysis
  
 Ansible / AWS / Linux containers
