  • Support data migrations and workflow optimization
  • Collaborate with product, engineering, and data teams to improve tools and performance
  • Create training materials and guide users on best practices
  • Stay up to date with the latest advancements in genomics and NGS technologies

What We’re Looking For

  • MSc or PhD in Bioinformatics, Genomics, or related field
  • 5+ years of experience working with genomic data and NGS pipelines
  • Strong coding skills (Python, R, Bash, SQL)
  • Experience with tools like GATK, BWA, Samtools (or similar)
  • Familiarity with FASTQ, BAM, VCF formats
  • Previous customer-facing or stakeholder-facing experience is a strong plus
  • Strong communication skills and a solutions-oriented mindset

Why Apply?

  • Work on impactful, real-world genomics applications
