About Us
Biosecure
ID Limited
Did
you know that every year, millions of forensic case samples go unprocessed due
to poor sample collection and inefficient DNA analysis? This backlog denies
justice to countless victims and their families.
With over 25
years of experience in forensic genetic analysis, we founded Biosecure ID to
tackle these challenges. Our mission is to enhance efficiency, ensure
reliability and reproducibility, reduce overall costs, and develop simple to
use integrated solutions for forensic analysis to make them accessible and
affordable to labs worldwide. Recognizing that no single company could offer
all the necessary tools and solutions, we created Biosecure ID as a strategic
platform to incubate new ideas ("Innovation"), make workflow solutions
accessible to end-users ("Value Added Reselling"), and support
laboratories and scientists globally in implementing technologies with
confidence ("Enabling Services").
To fill gaps
in the market, we partnered with Gentueri Inc for sample collection and
workflow solutions, Innogenomics Inc for specialized forensic DNA sample
processing, Paragon Genomics Inc for amplicon-based next-generation sequencing
(NGS) panels, and with LabVine – an online learning and development platform
with over 16,000 professionals registered globally with a view to promote their
existing courses and to develop new content for Applied Genetics and Genomics
Lab professionals. Our comprehensive services
include training, consultancy, validation and verification, automation, and
turnkey projects, with a particular focus on the Global South, where support is
most needed.
In addition,
Biosecure ID supports Science for Social Good CIC (https://ssg-cic.org), a UK-based non-profit
company dedicated to advancing applied genetics through open-source software
development (AGOSS® Platform), developing vocational training programmes in
countries where knowledge gaps are most visible, raising awareness and
education about DNA testing, standardizing sexual assault kits globally, and
advocating for DNA as a biometric modality through the Future of Biometrics
Consortium in collaboration with the Cambridge, UK-based Centre for Business
Innovation (CfBI).
We believe
our small contribution through collaboration and sharing knowledge will be a
significant drop in the ocean, making a meaningful difference in the world of
forensic science and applied genetics. Reach us at https://biosecureid.com for more

Job Description
This is a remote position.
Full Stack Developer — Data Science Specialist (Internship to Permanent)
Term: This role begins as a paid 3-month internship (pay details to be discussed, based on location). Successful completion leads to an offer of permanent employment. You would be one of BSID's first employees — a genuine founding role with the scope and responsibility that comes with it.
What You'll Do
- Act as BSID's Data Science Specialist — own our technology stack end to end, as employee #1
- Own AWS architecture — design, deploy, and launch MVPs for trial.
- Lead administration during early phase
- Work directly with external partners (Microsoft, ZOHO, Salesforce, Amazon (AWS), and third-party bioinformatics companies) to develop and launch new products, with fast turnaround and disciplined document control
- Manage and provide back-end support for our open-source community, AGOSS
- Apply data science and AI methods (R, R Shiny, and related platforms) to real product and research problems
- Administer and configure Microsoft Office and ZOHO (all apps), and act as development lead on the back end
- Document your work in detail as you go — decisions, architecture, and processes, not just code
Requirements
Attitude & Mindset
- Genuine start-up mentality — comfortable with ambiguity, wearing many hats, and moving fast
- Enjoys experimenting, and documents what you try in enough detail that others can follow it
- Takes ownership: sees problems through to a working solution rather than handing them off
- Strong problem-solver with a bias toward getting things done
- Entrepreneurial, with a builder mindset — you want to make things exist, not just plan them
- Committed to ongoing learning and development
- Believes in open source and open science as a matter of principle, not just practice
Knowledge, Skills & Qualifications
- Ideally UK-based and UK Passport holders
- Fresh Graduates (0-1 year) from Accredited UK Universities with BA, BSc, BTech, BEng in Computer Science, Mathematics or Data Science. Academic achievement of 2-1 or higher. No diplomas or online certificates.
- Efficient coding skills (range of languages, tools and AI-assisted pathways)
- Strong administrator-level knowledge of Microsoft Office and ZOHO (all apps), and able to act as development lead on the ZOHO back end
- Full AWS administration and architecture experience, with a track record of launching MVPs for trial
- Proficient in R and R Shiny, plus familiarity with other data science platforms
- A strong academic foundation in mathematics and physics (assessed during screening)
- A solid grounding in AI and AI-based solutions
- Knowledge of biology and bioinformatics is beneficial but not essential
- A genuine belief in open source and open science
All of the above will be evaluated during the screening and project task stages of the interview process.

Benefits
What we offer once you complete your 3-month internship and move into the permanent role:
- Equity: a real stake in what you help build, not just a paycheck
- Ownership from day one — you'll lead real projects, not shadow someone else's
- Support for your professional record: time and backing to publish papers, file patents, or co-author inventions that come out of your work here
- Room to build in the open — we encourage contributions to open-source tools, including AGOSS, and we'll credit the people behind the work, not just the company
- A genuine learning budget — courses, certifications, conferences, whatever helps you get better at the problem in front of you
- Flexibility — flexible hours and hybrid/remote arrangements wherever the lab work allows it
- Honest, generous time off, and transparency about where the company stands, so trust isn't something we ask you to take on faith
- Health insurance, because good work shouldn't come at the cost of your health
- Proximity to impact — your work reaches an actual forensic case, an actual diagnosis, and helps prevent future pandemic
