Senior Bioinformatics Engineer responsible for designing, building, and operating production-grade, end-to-end bioinformatics pipelines that process and interpret large-scale genome cohorts. The role involves deep expertise in genome assembly, variant calling, structural-variant calling, haplotype phasing, and pangenome analysis, with the ability to select, adapt, and benchmark state-of-the-art algorithms.… Requires proficiency in Python and compiled languages (C++/Rust/Go), containerization (Docker/Singularity), workflow managers (Nextflow/Snakemake/WDL), and cloud environments (AWS/GCP). The position combines applied research—exploring AI approaches for biological insight—with continuous improvement of algorithms, code, and computational infrastructure, while mentoring junior staff in a startup environment.

This Bioinformatics Product Owner role focuses on defining and executing the product roadmap for NGS (next-generation sequencing) bioinformatics pipelines and supporting software in precision oncology. The role requires deep domain expertise in cancer genomics, NGS workflows (whole genome, exome, transcriptomics), and clinical genomics standards (FDA, CLIA, CAP, AMP), combined with product management skills to prioritize backlogs, lead Agile ceremonies, and coordinate across bioinformatics, engineering, clinical, and regulatory teams.… Key responsibilities include translating clinical and business needs into epics and user stories in JIRA, ensuring FDA compliance and computer system validation (CSV), and optimizing NGS pipeline performance. The ideal candidate brings proven product ownership experience in bioinformatics or oncology software, strong requirement-gathering abilities, and fluency in both technical NGS tools and regulatory frameworks.
