There is a niche of companies that are starting to let software eat biology. It's one of the latecomers to utilize the improvements, but they do exist.
[My company is one - we have pure software engineers on our team, we build synthetic therapeutic proteins]
Check out companies like Zymergen, Benchling, Synthego, Bolt Threads, Gingko, Riffyn, & Teselagen.
In terms of pure software, helping open source scientific libraries, image processing for science, and genomics software would help out what is otherwise an under-funded field.
