- The NGP consists of three components: secure data lake for data storage, scalable computing solutions in one or more cloud providers, and intelligent database solutions that can handle the massive data generated by clinical genomics.
## Requirements
- Good experience in development and implementation of new IT environments, and an interest in big data and helping others.
- Because we are still a small team with many and varied tasks, you need to be flexible, driven, and ready to quickly get up to speed in new fields.

- Good knowledge and experience of using Unix and Python.
## Nice to Have

- Maintenance and administration of services in Microsoft Azure.
- Structuring data in Apache Solr environments, Altair GridEngine, and structuring data according to medical standards such as SNOMED-CT, HL7-FHIR, OpenEHR, and OMOP.
- Knowledge in genomics is not necessary for the role, but curiosity and the desire to learn new things.
- Because you will work closely with doctors, bioinformaticians, and biologists, you should also have good pedagogical skills and preferably a habit of working in interdisciplinary teams.
- There is some room to shape the position according to your competencies and interests.
