About the role
MyOme is seeking an experienced and innovative senior wet lab scientist who can both guide development efforts and contribute to our NGS assay development roadmap. This person will initially lead efforts to incorporate RNASeq into MyOme’s clinical testing workflow and evaluate additional new technologies. The ideal candidate has proven experience standing up clinical NGS assays and is able to think critically and creatively to deliver results.
What they're looking for
- Develop a comprehensive project plan for bringing RNASeq in house, covering development milestones, hiring needs, validation strategy, budget, and quality control
- Lead the technical development and validation of RNASeq assays, ensuring they meet MyOme's quality and performance standards
- Work closely with the research bioinformatics team to align wet lab processes with downstream data analysis and pipeline needs
- Mentor and guide wet lab scientists, providing technical direction on assay development and validation work
- Expand the in house assay portfolio over time by leading evaluation and (if warranted) development efforts for additional assays (e.g. Illumina TruPath, proteomics)
- Present project plans, progress, and findings to senior leadership
