ABOUT IMU BIOSCIENCES IMU Biosciences has developed proprietary platform technologies that generate and translate vast system-level immune data into actionable insights and tools to drive the development of precision medicines across a variety of diseases. Built on over a decade of research at King’s College London and the Francis Crick Institute, IMU leverages advanced immune profiling with proprietary AI and machine learning analytics to uncover novel clinical immune signatures. IMU continues to establish partnerships with leading pharma and biotech companies to advance disease diagnosis, optimise product selection, and improve patient stratification and monitoring - while also building its own pipeline of innovative products. ABOUT THE ROLE IMU is applying cutting-edge immune system science, data engineering, and machine learning to understand human health in a deeper and more actionable way. As our work moves closer to the clinic, we are building the data infrastructure needed to make complex biological and clinical data reliable, reproducible, governed, and ready for scientific discovery. We are looking for a Data Platform Engineer to help build and operate the platform behind that work. We think of the data platform as a product, not just infrastructure: it should be reliable, usable, well-documented, and shaped around the needs of the scientists, data scientists, and engineers who depend on it. You will help turn high-dimensional biological data into trusted, reusable, analysis-ready data products, and you will build the infrastructure that allows teams to run reproducible pipelines at scale. This is a hands-on engineering role for someone who lives in the cloud, expects infrastructure to be defined as code, and cares deeply about reproducibility. The work connects modern data platform engineering directly to cutting-edge science and, ultimately, better human health. The role is hybrid, with an expectation of working from our London office a couple of days per week. TEAM AND WAYS OF WORKING You will join a small, growing data platform function working closely with computational immunologists, data scientists, software engineers, and clinical-facing teams. This role sits in the platform layer: building the shared foundations that allow project teams to ingest, structure, govern, process, and reuse data reliably. You will not be working in isolation, but you should be comfortable owning substantial pieces of the platform, making pragmatic technical decisions, and helping set engineering standards as the function scales. WHAT YOU WILL DO - Build, maintain, and improve cloud-native data platform services used by scientific, data science, and engineering teams. - Develop and operate data lake and medallion-style architectures across raw, cleaned, curated, and analysis-ready data layers. - Create reliable patterns for data ingestion, validation, transformation, storage, metadata capture, and access control. - Support reproducible scientific and data pipelines, including assisting in the migration of workflows into production-ready deployable artefacts. - Improve data discoverability, lineage, provenance, auditability, and reuse in line with practical FAIR data principles. - Build automation, infrastructure, and developer workflows using infrastructure-as-code, CI/CD, containers, and cloud-native engineering practices. - Work closely with scientists, software engineers, and platform users to turn real data problems into reliable platform capabilities. - Improve reliability, documentation, maintainability, and cost-awareness across data platform services and pipelines. WHAT WE ARE LOOKING FOR CORE EXPERIENCE We do not expect every candidate to have used every tool in our stack. At CV stage, we are mainly looking for evidence of strong engineering judgement and hands-on experience in a few key areas: - Strong software engineering experience in Python or another production-grade
