Job Description:
Applies skills as a seasoned, experienced IT research professional. Uses computational, computer science, data science, and CI software research and development principles, with relevant domain science knowledge where applicable, along with professional programming concepts for medium-sized projects or portions of larger projects. Develops and optimizes a variety of computational, data science, and CI research tools and components. Performs research on current and future HPC, data, and CI technologies, hardware and software projects. Works on algorithm development, optimization, programming, performance analysis and/or benchmarking assignments of moderate scope where the tasks involve knowledge of either domain/computer science research requirements and/or CI design/implementation requirements. The work will be multi-faceted, largely tasked with participating in the analysis of a diverse collection of genetic data. Responsibilities will include providing ad-hoc technical support, and benchmarking of newly emerging computational tools for specific projects and system maintenance. Primary tasks revolve around development and maintenance of a variant analysis pipeline that processes sequencing data, integrates internal and external data, and prioritizes genetic variants based on an array of metrics. Additional work includes creating new visual summaries of data in R, downloading and piloting new analysis tools, working with the San Diego Super Computer Center for storage and processing needs. Integrating with a team of bioinformaticians, staff researchers and Principal Investigators to perform statistics-based analysis to achieve high-impact results. MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS:

The UCSD Institute for Genome Medicine (IGM) is a center of excellence for organizing the multi-disciplinary resources necessary to effectively translate the discoveries of genetic and genomic research from “bench to bedside”. Under the leadership of Kelly A. Frazer PhD, the IGM aims to link clinical and genomic information to facilitate personalized health care. By combining UCSD’s expertise in Genetics, Disease Biology, and Clinical Practice with its strengths in Computer Science, Bioinformatics, and Systems Biology, the IGM is uniquely positioned to support all activities along the continuum of genomic medicine. The IGM Genomics Center Core Facility is under the leadership of Kristen Jepsen, PhD. IGM focuses on bridging genomics and systems biology to pathways and disease, advancing in whole genome amplification, genotyping platforms, next generation sequencing, and more. The IGM Genomics Center aspires to perform routine acquisition of whole genome information from individual human subjects using new sequencing technologies, doing more all for an affordable cost. UC San Diego Health is the only academic health system in the San Diego region, providing leading-edge care in patient care, biomedical research, education, and community service. Our facilities include two university hospitals, a National Cancer Institute-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center, Shiley Eye Institute, Sulpizio Cardiovascular Center, and several outpatient clinics. UC San Diego Medical Center in Hillcrest is a designated Level I Trauma Center and has the only Burn Center in the county. We invite you to join our dynamic team! Applications/Resumes are accepted for current job openings only. For full consideration on any job, applications must be received prior to the initial closing date. If a job has an extended deadline, applications/resumes will be considered during the extension period; however, a job may be filled before the extended date is reached.
