We are looking for an experienced Data and Systems Officer to join the Outbreak Data Analysis Platform (ODAP) at the University of Edinburgh.

The Data and Systems Officer will play a critical role in managing, curating, and optimising data flows, pipelines, and systems for several large-scale clinical studies within ODAP.

Your skills and attributes for success:

Degree or equivalent professional experience in a relevant field (e.g., data science, software development, bioinformatics).
Strong experience with data management and analysis tools (e.g., SQL, Python, R).
Experience working with clinical and/or genomic data.
Proficiency in data visualisation tools (e.g., Tableau, Power BI, or Python frameworks like Dash and Plotly).
Understanding of web development (e.g., HTML, CSS, Markdown), and willingness to learn tools like Jekyll for website maintenance.
