Quick Summary
Proven experience building and maintaining production websites over time. Strong HTML, CSS, and JavaScript skills, with confidence in responsive and accessible web development.
At Genestack, we are tackling the underlying computational and scientific challenges of bioinformatics to provide researchers with software tools that streamline discovery and help advance precision medicine, drug development, and bioinformatics research.
Our platform is used by leading pharmaceutical, agricultural, and consumer goods companies, as well as academic institutions.
We are looking for a proactive Website Developer to take long-term technical ownership of our official website, genestack.com.
This is a freelance consulting engagement rather than a full-time role. The ongoing workload is expected to be around 10 hours per month on a retainer basis, with additional hours agreed separately when larger website projects, redesigns, or technical improvements require more substantial involvement.
You will own the technical side of our web presence, work closely with our designer and internal team, and help us make pragmatic, durable technical decisions. We are looking for someone who communicates proactively, understands the site in depth, and can act as a long-term technical partner rather than simply deliver individual tasks.

- Partner with our designer to implement clean, responsive, accessible pages and reusable UI components.
