The role

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.

We are looking for a proactive Website Developer to take long-term technical ownership of our official website, genestack.com.

What you'll do

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.

Build, refactor, and maintain genestack.com on our current stack (MODX CMS hosted on AWS), while keeping content easy for non-technical team members to manage.
Own the technical health of the website, including maintenance, bug fixes, upgrades, deployment, hosting, performance, and stability.
Partner with our designer to implement clean, responsive, accessible pages and reusable UI components.
Monitor website performance and analytics, support technical SEO, and recommend relevant improvements.
Maintain cookie and consent tooling such as Enzuzo in line with business requirements.
Proactively identify technical risks and recommend practical, durable solutions.

How you'll work

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.
