Data Scientist Jobs

About The Position

Requirements

• PhD in Computational Biology, Bioinformatics, Genetics, or a related quantitative discipline with 5+ years of industry and/or postdoctoral experience applying computational methods to large-scale biological datasets.
• Demonstrated experience integrating transcriptomic, proteomic, genetic, and related biological datasets to answer complex scientific questions.
• Experience supporting biomarker discovery, translational research, or target identification in a biotechnology or pharmaceutical setting.
• Working proficiency in Python for scientific computing and data analysis.
• Comfortable tackling unfamiliar biological problems by rapidly learning new disease areas, identifying appropriate datasets, and integrating diverse evidence into actionable scientific insights.
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to thrive as an independent contributor in a collaborative, fast-moving research environment.

Nice To Haves
