ReadCoor

ReadCoor is a company developing a platform for DNA sequencing in 3D tissue. We are a multidisciplinary team of biologists, chemists, hardware and software engineers building this technology to assist in the next leap of biological research and discovery. Our sequencing technology maps their location in exquisite detail. We can, for example tell you not just that a virus’s DNA was found in a sample, but also allow you to view the intact tissue and see which individual cells were infected. Our backend pipeline engineering role is responsible for building and scaling out our ingestion and processing pipeline. This pipeline uses a lot of python (numpy, scipy, skimage, pandas, dask, zarr to name a few libraries) to process individual tissue samples which range in size from 1-5 TB of images (and growing). Our Hardware Software Engineer is responsible for writing code that enables our automated sequencing platform. To accomplish this we use python, C++, and JS to control a complex mutli-axis imaging platform with integrated high-precision fluidics.
