Early careers

As a Software Engineer Intern on the microfluidics platform, you’ll develop and optimize software for controlling fluidic systems in our devices. Develop your experience in embedded systems, control algorithms, and high-performance development while collaborating with researchers and engineers.

Join us to support genomic workflow development using the ElysION liquid handling robot. Obtain practical lab experience, troubleshoot, write scripts, and explore key aspects of Oxford Nanopore’s sequencing technologies, including microfabrication and electrochemistry.

Apply for one of our intern roles based in the Chemistry Research, Development or Production groups. In each role you will be part of a multi-disciplinary team working on synthesis, characterisation or testing of core chemical components of our sequencing platforms.

Join our late development & regulated development team, working alongside experienced scientists to contribute to critical projects, gaining substantial experience exposure to lab work, data analysis and regulatory affairs in a fast-paced scientific R&D environment.

Join cutting-edge projects optimising motor proteins or pore structures for DNA sequencing accuracy or advancing protein sequencing applications. Acquire practical, hands-on experience in molecular biology, bioinformatics, and collaborate with our leading scientists.

As a Machine Learning Intern at Oxford Nanopore, you'll collaborate with expert researchers and engineers on projects enhancing sequencing accuracy, speed, and efficiency. Obtain experience applying Machine Learning to bioinformatics, large datasets, and model deployment.

The team seeks an intern to collaborate on developing MinKNOW, the software controlling our sequencers. You'll contribute to the high-performance C++ backend, enhance the Electron-based front-end GUI, and support feature additions and rigorous testing.
