## 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
