Job Description:
As a Bioinformatics Data Scientist at the client in Santa Clara, you will design and analyze experiments to drive development of our sequencing technology and apply it to a wide range of applications. The successful candidate must be excited about learning new concepts from both life and physical sciences and applying them to an interdisciplinary project. The majority of the time will be spent designing and analyzing experiments to better understand DNA sequencing experiments. This involves isolating specific components of the system as well as seeing how different combinations behave, with an eye on making the output as useful as possible for the different use cases (research, clinical, etc.). You will also be responsible for updating, maintaining and testing portions of our automated analysis pipeline. Responsibilities:
