About

- Use bioinformatics tools to process raw datasets into useful, benchmark-ready formats.
- Work ahead of the benches, staging data before it is needed rather than after
Requirements
- 3-5+ years working hands-on with biological or biomedical data.
- A track record of finding non-obvious, omics or therapeutics data sources at scale.
- Fluency with primary literature and patent search, and the judgment to assess data quality
- Strong communicator.
Competencies
- Partner mindset - You can manage relationships with many parties/vendors at once.
- Product - Skilled at scoping scientific use cases and building partnerships with vendors or clearinghouses.
- Curation Experience - You have curated omics or therapeutics data at scale before.
- Knowledge - You know where the data actually lives.
- Depth - You have biological depth in a related field.
- AI - You are resourceful in levering AI tools to build datasets across scientific domains
- Experience - 3-5+ years in industry
Nice to Have

- Experience building datasets for model training or evaluation
