About the Role

This role is focused on advancing therapeutic discovery through high-content perturbation screening and single-cell genomics. The position involves analyzing large-scale sequencing datasets, developing computational pipelines, and collaborating with multidisciplinary teams to generate biological insights that support drug discovery.

Responsibilities

  • Analyze and interpret large-scale single-cell sequencing datasets (scRNA-seq) generated from high-content perturbation experiments.
  • Develop and optimize computational workflows for Perturb-seq, CROP-seq, Sci-Plex, and other sequencing-based functional genomics studies.
  • Apply statistical and computational methods to identify biological mechanisms, therapeutic targets, and treatment responses.
  • Collaborate with biologists, chemists, computational scientists, and cross-functional research teams to translate complex data into actionable insights.
  • Develop reproducible data analysis pipelines using Python and bioinformatics tools.
  • Perform quality control, data integration, visualization, and statistical analysis of large-scale genomics datasets.
  • Integrate multimodal datasets, including single-cell, genomic, and clinical data, to support research and therapeutic development.
  • Present findings through scientific reports, presentations, and collaborations with internal research teams.
  • Maintain well-documented, reproducible computational workflows and contribute to continuous process improvements.

Requirements

  • Ph.D. in Computational Biology, Bioinformatics, Computer Science, Statistics, Mathematics, or a related quantitative life science discipline.
  • Proven experience analyzing large-scale single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) datasets.
  • Strong programming skills in Python for scientific computing and data analysis.
  • Solid background in statistics, probabilistic modeling, and computational data analysis.
  • Experience working with next-generation sequencing (NGS) and genomics datasets.
  • Excellent analytical, communication, and problem-solving skills.
  • Demonstrated ability to collaborate effectively in multidisciplinary research environments.
  • Strong publication record demonstrating scientific contributions.
  • Experience with Perturb-seq, CROP-seq, Sci-Plex, or other CRISPR-based perturbation screening technologies.
  • Experience with CRISPR functional genomics and single-cell perturbation analysis.
  • Knowledge of multimodal data integration, including genomic, transcriptomic, and clinical datasets.
  • Experience using workflow management systems such as Nextflow or Snakemake.
  • Experience working on High Performance Computing (HPC) environments using SLURM.
  • Familiarity with cloud computing, reproducible workflows, and collaborative software development practices.
