We are building a future where biology is no longer destiny, but design. Backed by Khosla.
About the role
We seek a Senior Bioinformatics Scientist to own and develop the methods and pipelines that power our proprietary capsule platform and feed our Universal Virtual Cell-Signaling Model. Working across single-cell, spatial, and bulk RNA-seq, you'll build reproducible pipelines, develop new bioinformatics methods, and apply them to our data. You'll collaborate closely with wet lab scientists, software engineers, and machine learning researchers to advance novel sequencing protocols and our therapeutic programs.
What they're looking for
- PhD in Bioinformatics, Genomics, Computational Biology, Computer Science, or a related field. Equivalent industry experience is also welcome
- 3+ years of experience developing, adapting, and benchmarking bioinformatics methods and building reproducible pipelines for large-scale single-cell and/or spatial transcriptomic data
- Hands-on experience with single-cell transcriptomics analysis
- Strong Python and/or R programming skills
- Experience building reproducible workflows with a pipeline manager (e.g. Nextflow or Snakemake), containers, and version control
- Experience applying state-of-the-art large language models (LLMs) to bioinformatics projects
More about this role
Cellular Intelligence is building a universal foundation model for cell signaling to understand, predict, and ultimately control how cells behave, transforming biology from trial and error into an engineering discipline. A clinical-stage AI company, Cellular Intelligence holds the global rights to STEM-PD, an investigational Phase 2-ready cell therapy for Parkinson's disease with FDA Fast Track designation, acquired from Novo Nordisk. The company's founding team includes repeat AI entrepreneur Micha Breakstone, Ph.D. ( Chorus.ai , acquired for $575M), the Head of the Fundamental AI Group at MIT, and five professors from Harvard Medical School, the University of Pennsylvania, and the University of Washington, collectively holding five National Academy memberships.
