kevinwuhoo··on Ask HN: Who is hiring? (February 2021)
10x Genomics | Pleasanton, CA & San Francisco, CA | Remote (US Only) or Onsite

We're a rapidly-growing biotech company that develops software, hardware, and chemistry to accelerate humanity's understanding of biology. We were called out by C&EN as a technology that played a critical part for understanding the coronavirus [0].

Our software enables scientists to better understand human health, such as pinpointing the differences between a cancer and normal cell. We utilize Go, React, Typescript, and Electron to create intuitive visualization and web applications. Our data pipelines are primarily written using Numpy/Scipy/Pandas stack, but we're making increasing use of Rust [1].

We've always been remote-friendly and are looking for awesome people at various levels for the following roles: Product Manager, Frontend Engineer, Backend Engineer, Security Engineer, Embedded Software Engineer, Product Designer, Head of Platform, Engineer in Test, and many more.

You can learn more and see our job listings here: https://www.10xgenomics.com/careers/software. Feel free to contact me directly at kevin.wu@10xgenomics.com with your resume.

We look forward to hearing from you and good luck on your search!

kevinwuhoo··on I should have loved biology
Sure, but luckily there do exist careers somewhere in the middle! Data volumes are becoming much larger and many biotech companies these days are building out extensive software teams to tackle all sorts of challenges.

There's also an entire field of computational biology where you apply (and innovate) on huge datasets using ML/algorithms.

In both types of roles you can remain fairly close to biology while still writing software day to day. Many biotech companies will even compensate at bay area tech salaries.

kevinwuhoo··on Researchers generate complete human X chromosome sequence
There is! You can find the current "agreed upon" human genome reference segmented by chromosome here: https://hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu/goldenPath/hg38/chromosomes/. (It's not the assembly that's described in the article here.)

People do talk about the genome and its elements using the location by chromosome number and range like you'd describe an index in a string. There has even been special notation developed to do so [1]. However, it depends on _how_ you're looking at biology.

I think an analogy would be: you can describe all code as machine code, but when there are higher level abstractions you wouldn't choose to do so.
