Job Description:
This position will further develop the Computational Life Science platform in Trait Research: assisting in the search for pesticidal bacteria, mining and improving their active genes, and creating best-in-class traits for pest, disease and weed control. This includes many areas of statistics and bioinformatics. We are more interested in hiring and developing the best candidate than we are in one specific skill set. Despite a varied list of potential projects below, we are interested in someone who can own and drive transformational research in their chosen field. The primary responsibilities of this role, Computational Biology Scientist II, are to: -Develop and execute molecular and structural bioinformatics-based projects focused on weed, disease and pest control. -Drive innovative solutions to bottlenecks in our protein engineering workflow by designing statistically sound feeding assays and finding novel ways to incorporate structural and molecular bioinformatics models to suggest target sites for protein improvement. -Use machine learning on large genomic and phenomic data sets to find novel pesticidal gene classes. -Predict binding sites based on comparisons of pesticidal gene secondary structure and host-receptor binding assays. -Determine which components of genetic networks are required to recapitulate a phenotype in a heterologous system. Who you are: Your success will be driven by your demonstration of our LIFE values. More specifically related to this position, Bayer seeks an incumbent who possesses the following: Required Qualifications: -A PhD in bioinformatics, statistics, microbiology, genetics or a related field with 0-1 years of relevant experience or a MS with 3+ years of relevant experience. -Strong mastery of a subset of bioinformatics, machine learning or statistics skills. -A history of success as a driving force in research projects. -Demonstrated record of leadership, integrity, flexibility, and efficiency working in a technical environment.
