TypeFull-Time
DegreesMaster’s, PhD
Experience LevelSenior

Requirements

  • M.S. or Ph.D. in bioinformatics, biology, data science or a related field with emphasis on biological data analysis.
  • 3+ years of pharmaceutical or biotech experience in bioinformatics focused on oncology, immunology, or related field.
  • Proficiency and experience programming using R and/or Python.
  • Proficiency in statistical models and analysis of clinical data. Some ML experience a strong plus.
  • Proficiency in visualizations and faceting of molecular data necessary (oncoplots, heatmaps, PCA, etc.).
  • Experience with efficacy, baseline demographic, and other outcome data generated in a clinical trial.
  • Experience with statistical methods i.e. survival analysis, and causal inference.
  • Expertise in bioinformatic analysis of cancer signaling pathways and driver mutations.
  • Experience in tools to analyze cancer genomics data types (RNA, WES, ctDNA, etc) and common tool outputs (GATK, Salmon, OncoKB, VEP, etc.) preferred.

Responsibilities

  • Integrate multiple data sources including circulating tumor DNA, patient enrollment data, molecular profiling (RNA/DNA sequencing outputs), multiplex immunohistochemistry to identify and validate new biomarkers for candidate drugs.
  • Work with internal groups, contract research organizations and collaborators to deliver validated biomarker data and analysis.
  • Support the development of biomarker related aspects of the trial design where bioinformatic analysis is required, including study protocols, lab manuals, clinical study reports, and other regulatory documents.
  • Work with biomarker scientists to support analysis of biomarker readouts (summary statistics, and visualization of efficacy in molecular subgroups).
  • Collaborate with preclinical bioinformaticians to design, analyze and interpret experiments to validate biomarkers, understand compound mechanism of action, and identify biomarkers for patient selection and target engagement.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Development with professional software development systems and methods (e.g. IDE’s, ticketing systems, version control systems).
  • Familiarity with large public/private genomic data sets (GDC, TCGA, etc.).
  • Familiarity with clusters, containers, and cloud computing infrastructure for data processing, analysis, and storage.
  • Experience in tools to analyze cancer genomics datasets (GATK, Salmon, OncoKB, VEP, etc.).
