Job Description:
DuPont Industrial Biosciences is seeking a Bioinformatics Research Associate with experience in Next-Generation Sequence (NGS) data analysis. Industrial Biosciences is an industry leader in providing bio-based solutions to meet the needs of a growing population while protecting our environment. We create enzymes and other bio-based inventions used by manufacturers to increase the productivity and environmental benefits of nearly 400 consumer and commercial products, such as foods, beverages, animal nutrition, textiles, household cleaning and fuel for vehicles. We have major US research locations in Wilmington, Delaware and Palo Alto, California, and the location of this position is flexible with respect to existing research sites. The successful candidate will be part of multidisciplinary project teams within a larger community of computational biologists, molecular biologists, microbiologists, biochemists and biochemical engineers. The successful applicant will use bioinformatics tools and custom pipelines to extract value from large and complex datasets that are generated through collaborative research projects. The candidate will work with scientists at multiple locations, will interact with multiple computing environments and will support multiple biotechnology projects. These projects may include protein engineering of enzymes, metabolic engineering of microbes and discovery of novel microbial consortia to benefit animal and human health. Some examples of project responsibilities are processing data via existing computational pipelines, further developing these pipelines to accommodate new data types or uses, developing advanced scripts to analyze and display genomic data and interpreting complex biological information. Candidates should be self-motivated, thrive in a research team environment, and be eager to take on new challenges presented by diverse projects. Job Qualifications: This position is open to candidates with a Bachelor’s degree in Bioinformatics or Computer Science and at least 2 years of relevant experience, or a Master’s degree in Bioinformatics, Computer Science or related field. Experience with Biological data and systems is required and experience with bacteria, yeast or fungi is preferred. Experience with large Biological data sets, particularly NGS data is strongly preferred. Experience with cloud computing systems, genomics, statistical programming languages, version control systems, web UI development and relational databases is preferred. Qualifications: -B.S. in Bioinformatics or Computer Science and a minimum of two years of post-graduate experience or an MS in Bioinformatics, Computer Science or related field. -Strong Linux skills and programming ability in at least one of the following: Python, C/C , Java, or Perl, with a strong preference for Python. -Effective written and oral communication skills and demonstrated ability to work in a team environment. -Strong team player
