Job Summary: In this role, you’ll apply your expertise to help train next-generation AI systems. Your work will shape how models learn, reason, and perform through high-quality, real-world input.
Key Responsibilities
- Design, evaluate, and critique bioinformatics and computational biology workflows to support AI benchmarking initiatives.
- Provide expert-level insights on genomic, transcriptomic, and proteomic data analysis pipelines.
- Assess and optimize pipeline parameters, tool configurations, and statistical methods for accuracy and reproducibility.
- Analyze biological datasets (e.g., NGS, RNA-seq, variant calling, protein structure) and provide actionable recommendations.
- Leverage domain knowledge to guide the development and validation of biology-related AI models and tools.
- Communicate complex scientific concepts clearly, both in writing and verbally, to technical and non-technical collaborators.
- Document findings, methodologies, and best practices to ensure knowledge transfer across the customer’s team.
Required Skills and Qualifications
- PhD in bioinformatics, computational biology, genomics, or a closely related field, or equivalent industry/research experience.
- Professional written and spoken English (C1 or higher).
- Hands-on experience analyzing biological data (e.g., NGS, RNA-seq, variant analysis).
- Proficiency in Python and/or R for scientific analysis, plus experience with standard bioinformatics tools (e.g., BLAST, samtools, GATK, Bioconductor, Biopython).
- Experience building reproducible workflows with tools such as Nextflow or Snakemake, and comfort working in Linux/command-line environments.
