About Natera

Dedicated to oncology, women’s health, and organ health. Natera’s cell-free DNA tests help protect health and inform more personalized decisions about care. Backed by Lightspeed and Sequoia.

About the role

Our software portfolio spans bioinformatics pipelines, reagent QC systems, liquid handling automation, LIMS/LIS integrations, and NGS analysis tools. Each component carries regulatory obligations under IEC 62304 and ISO 13485, and each needs to be verified and validated with the rigor that clinical diagnostics demands. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • 3+ years designing and executing verification tests specifically for NGS bioinformatics pipelines — including NGS analysis workflows and individual algorithm testing
  • 2+ years of testing experience in cloud environments (AWS or GCP)
  • Direct working knowledge of ISO 13485 and IEC 62304 design controls — applied experience, not just familiarity
  • Prior experience working cross-functionally with bioinformaticians, software engineers, and clinical laboratory teams
  • Prior work experience in bioinformatics, computational biology, or a biology-related field — this is a hard requirement for this role
