The role reports to the Director of Computational Biology. This role can be Hybrid (2-3 days onsite in Brisbane, CA) or Remote role.

Responsibilities:

• Plan and execute development experiments for our multiomics cancer screening tests.
• Partner cross-functionally with computational, development, regulatory, and quality leaders to develop and execute a regulated development strategy working toward FDA approval.
• Use your quantitative skills to develop computational methods and interpret complex experimental results in order to optimize and validate innovative technology for sample collection, preparation, and detection.
• Develop and execute appropriate experimental design and analysis plans for Development, Verification, and Validation studies, closely partnering with Biostatistics, Development, and Pre-Analytics teams.
• Work closely with molecular and computational research teams developing our IVD products for blood-based molecular assays involving cell-free DNA.
• Impact patient lives through the development and launch of high-quality cancer screening technologies.

Requirements:

• Post-graduate degree (MS or PhD) in statistics, computational biology, bioinformatics, cancer biology, or related quantitative field.
• 3+ years of industry experience.
• Experience with molecular biology and next-generation sequencing.
• Experience in experimental design and analysis of high-throughput, quantitative technologies.
• Familiarity with and ability to select and leverage bioinformatics tools for the above molecular assays.
• Experience in applied statistics, such as in hypothesis testing, GLM, and appropriate use of simulation.
• Expertise in data analysis and visualization using R (tidyverse), or Python statistical packages (Numpy, Matplotlib, Pandas), or equivalent, under version control.
• Excellent oral and written communication skills to communicate to scientific and broader audiences, with keen attention to detail.
• Ability to work on a cross-functional team in our highly collaborative environment, working with both computational and experimental scientists.

Nice to Have:

• Experience in the development of diagnostic devices in a regulated environment (PMA, 510(k), CE-IVD) preferred.
• Experience with a variety of NGS methods (e.g., WGS, target capture with UMI, bisulfite sequencing, RNA-seq).

Benefits and Additional Information:

The US target range of our base salary for new hires is $161,925 - $227,325. You will also be eligible to receive equity, cash bonuses, and a full range of medical, financial, and other benefits depending on the position offered.
