Today, Seqera consolidates fragmented data and diverse computing resources into a unified platform. Our modern biotech stack is trusted by over 150 leading life sciences organizations. Empowered with modern software engineering, organizations conduct science faster, on larger datasets, and with more confidence. Seqera accelerates discoveries in an open world.
Would you like to be a part of a company with a bigger purpose and make it successful with your own ideas? If yes, keep reading!
Seqera stands at the forefront of the bioinformatics revolution, changing the way scientists process and interpret data at scale. As pioneers in deploying reproducible and scalable data pipelines across multiple computational infrastructures, our tools accelerate scientific discoveries, enable personalized medicine, and quite literally help to rewrite the code of life.
Role Overview:
Join Seqera’s Customer Experience Team as a Technical Solution Architect, and help the world’s leading Life Sciences & Biotech organizations run faster, smarter, and more scalable data workflows.
Combine system-level thinking with hands-on coding, cloud infrastructure, and container orchestration to lead technical deployments of the Seqera Ecosystem across diverse customer environments and shape their success with our product suite.
What You’ll Do:
Technical Onboarding: Lead the technical workstreams for enterprise customer implementations, across a diverse range of cloud, hybrid, and on-prem environments.
Pre-Sales Engagement: Serve as the key technical partner during the pre-sales process, working closely with Sales and Scientific Development to shape solutions, lead POC implementation, and leverage proven-in-the-field best practices to meet customer needs.
System Review & Optimization Services: Work with complex customer environments to assess what’s working, identify gaps, and recommend improvements. Lead deep-dive technical reviews on topics like infrastructure configuration, automation, cloud cost-efficiency, and clearly communicate both findings and solutions to engineers and decision-makers alike.
Tooling & Automation: Build and maintain supporting tools that simplify deployment, strengthen automation and troubleshooting, and deliver tailored solutions that meet specific customer needs.
Advanced Support & Escalation: Act as the technical backbone for our client-facing support operations. Spot patterns across inbound channels, surface systemic problems, and liaise with internal teams like DevOps & Engineering to drive lasting fixes and efficient resolutions.
Who You Are
- You have 5+ years of experience in a technical solutions or architecture role, ideally customer-facing and focused on system integration and infrastructure deployments.
You maintain a public code portfolio (GitHub, GitLab, etc.) showing:
Real-world Python projects: tools / integrations / backends (not just scripts).
Use of Docker and/or Kubernetes for packaging and deployment.
Build or integrate with external APIs over HTTPS(3rd party or self-hosted) .
Infrastructure as Code – preferably with Terraform.
You’ve built and shipped things others rely on — whether internal utilities, customer-specific solutions, or production systems.
You’re confident in cloud-native infrastructure, especially on AWS (GCP or Azure are a plus), and comfortable debugging across application, infra, and deployment layers.
You enjoy working directly with customers — mapping out requirements, explaining systems to engineers and stakeholders, and navigating ambiguity.
You’re curious, resourceful, and persistent in untangling complex technical environments, where the path isn’t always fully defined.
Bonus Points:
Experience working in a fast-moving startup.
Experience in technical pre-sales and/or Life Sciences.
Background in Life Sciences environments or scientific computing workflows.
