Job Description:
We are seeking a Bioinformatics Scientist enthusiastic at automating clinical relevant annotation and interpretation for NGS data, providing insights from knowledge mining databases/literatures to bridge genotype and phenotype, performing data analytics on clinical and genomic data, and ensuring the quality of our informatics platform for personalized medicine. You will work with our highly professional teams in both science and engineering to deliver the best genomic solution to the field. How you will spend your time:
Additional Info:
About Us: You will join a group of scientists in our Data Insights team dedicated to building innovative products and approaches for the analysis and interpretation of next-generation sequencing data. We code to cure! Bina Technologies is now part of Roche Sequencing, and together we are using our passion for improving lives by accelerating the science of personalized medicine. We are changing science and changing lives. In our team, you will find Life Science meets Computer Science. Being part of the Roche Sequencing team will take us beyond working on just one product in the genomic sequencing lifecycle, unleashing us to work across the spectrum. Same great dedication and determination to build the software and systems to empower better diagnostics, but with a lot more horsepower and industry recognition. Read on, for more reasons to consider joining our mission to #Code2Cure The science of interpreting the human genome is an exciting work in progress. Next-generation sequencing and genomic technologies are providing us with unprecedented visibility into the origins of health and disease. However, the main challenge is enabling the analysis and management of massive datasets being produced by scientists and researchers around the world. Data Realities: -Genomic industry data is doubling every seven months. – 2X as fast as Moore’s law for transistor density. -Over 3 years, a full operating sequencing cluster generates over 6 petabytes of data. That’s six hundred times larger than the data generated over 3 years on YouTube. -We’re talking about exabytes (1018) of raw, unprocessed, sequence data in a few years. -From a tech-perspective, the genomics world is really behind computer science, but it means we have this opportunity to leap years ahead – not just make incremental changes. We are dedicated to tackling this challenge every day. We know the ability to analyze and manage these datasets will revolutionize how we diagnose disease, develop drugs, and treat patients, especially in complex cases such as cancer. Watch our code2cure meetup presentation and slide deck here With a strong interdisciplinary knowledge in science and technology, we are elevating the speed and quality of genomic analysis, bringing us one step closer to solutions that will change and save lives. Headquartered in Redwood City, California, Bina Technologies was recently acquired by Hoffmann-La Roche and now is part of Roche Sequencing. Why work with us? Because you want to make your mark in this world, are relentless in the pursuit of excellence and you are ready to code to cure. CEO Presentation Culture – What’s important to us, and ideally to you: -People First: Create an environment of trust and respect. -Own It: Take accountability to drive quality results. -Speak Up: Actively speak up, listen, and encourage open dialogue. -Innovate Now: Seek new ideas and embrace our diverse strengths. -Succeed as One: Actively collaborate to achieve our common goal.
