Year in Industry Placement - Advanced Research Computing (ARC) (10398)
Rosalind Franklin Institute
The Rosalind Franklin Institute (the Franklin) is a technology institute established by the UK Government as a unique centre committed to advancing tools that are needed to transform healthcare in the future.
The Institute brings together researchers in life and physical sciences, and engineering, to develop a spectrum of tools which we will use to image, interpret and intervene in biological systems. These insights will speed up the discovery of new medicines, help find new diagnostics and contribute to a deeper understanding of human health and disease. Our Science Strategy seeks to focus the Franklin’s research and unite our researchers around our Technology Innovation Challenges and Life Science Challenges.

We are offering a Year in Industry placement for a student interested in digital research infrastructure, data systems, and research-enabling technologies. This role will provide the successful candidate with the opportunity to work on real-world projects that support researchers, improve data quality, and enhance infrastructure usability.
Examples of potential project areas:
- Tools to assess and improve metadata quality in line with FAIR principles.
- User-facing dashboards to visualise infrastructure usage and system status.
- Pipelines to extract structured metadata from semi-structured data sources using LLMs.
Projects are flexible and will be shaped to match the successful candidate's skills and learning objectives.
