Duration: 12 Months+ (Possible Extension)
Shift: 1st (Mon – Fri)
Pay Rate: $54/hr. on W2
Position Overview:
- We are seeking a motivated Bioinformatics Research Associate II to join the Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) Core group to support genomic analyses of multiple therapeutic modalities within the Genomic Medicine Unit (GMU) CMC organization.
- The role is responsible for leading the analysis of gene therapy driven projects, interfaced within a cross-functional team, to develop and implement genomic analytical solutions for programs spanning precandidate selection through late phase clinical development.
- The ideal candidate will be expected to support end-to-end NGS analysis solutions, through analytical pipeline design and execution. Strong independent problem solving and troubleshooting skillsets are preferred.
Key Responsibilities:
- Support computational needs for the development and validation of NGS-based assays.
Work closely with a multi-disciplinary team of scientists and engineers to implement genomic analytical solutions for programs spanning precandidate selection through late phase clinical development. - Develop, execute, and maintain NGS analysis pipelines for execution in cloud-based computational environments.
- Keep records of development work and testing in a GxP environment utilizing electronic notebook solutions.
- Represent the group at internal meetings.
- Degree in a relevant computer science discipline with a minimum of 3 years of relevant industry experience.
- Minimum of 1 year experience with NGS, spanning knowledge and hands-on dry-lab experience.
- Expertise in bioinformatics with a working understanding of genomic analysis solutions (e.g., FastQC, Bowtie2, SAMtools, NCBI BLAST+, Nextflow, etc.).
- Scripting experience in coding languages (e.g., bash, awk, Python, R, etc.).
Understanding of NGS platforms, specifically those utilizing the synthesis by sequencing technique (i.e., Illumina platforms). - Ability to work independently and adapt under aggressive and/or changing timelines.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Familiarity with the software development lifecycle (e.g., Git).
- Automated unit testing for test driven design (TDD).
Familiarity with basic molecular biology techniques (e.g., ligation, PCR, and qPCR) as well as nucleic acid extraction and analysis techniques (e.g., Nanodrop, DNA fragment analyzers, ddPCR, etc.). - Knowledge of and experience with other sequencing platforms (i.e., SMRT sequencing).
Prior experience in leading the internalization of custom NGS analysis pipelines is highly preferred. - Wet-lab method development experience to support NGS workflows.
