    • Analyze large-scale genomic datasets acquired internally and through collaboration with others.
    • Participate in the technical development process of an emerging NGS platform.
    • Implement state-of-the-art computational methods, and develop innovative approaches to software challenges that touch all aspects of NGS data analysis.
    • Ensure that software adheres to regulatory controls for medical diagnostic software packages.
    • Maintain expertise in the science and application of genomic technologies.

    REQUIREMENTS

    Education Requirements and experience:
    • Doctorate degree (or similar years of experience) in bioinformatics, genetics, or computer science, or similar with:
      • A minimum of 3 years industrial/university (genome sequencing center) experience in the field of NGS bioinformatics algorithms/software development
      • Experience with and an understanding of alignment, BAM processing, and variant calling tools used in NGS analysis best practices.
