Job Description
Your work will change lives. Including your own.
The Impact Youll Make
With treatments for hundreds of diseases in our sights weve built a data science team with domain expertise in computer science bioinformatics physics biology mathematics applied statistics and more. We work sidebyside with biologists automation scientists chemists software engineers and many others; together we develop the tools and methods to turn our experimental data into treatments for pathologies that affect the lives of countless individuals. As a data scientist supporting the development of our scaled transcriptomics capabilities youll be designing building testing and deploying both development and production NGS analysis workflows.
In this role you will leverage this data as you:
- Develop methods metrics benchmarks models and workflows to help drive drug discovery in a standardized way
- Build scalable production bioinformatics workflows to support our NGS assays
- Create and analyze enormous sets of connected data for a variety of programs to learn how best to advance drug discovery in an industrialized way
- Collaborate with engineering teams to mature your models and analyses and put them into productionized flows
- Deliver quickly and iteratively both supporting inflight programs and building improvements for the longterm
- Learn to leverage new code packages and data science techniques as needed
The Team Youll Join
You will be joining a platform development and workflows team that specializes in development of scaled transcriptomics at Recursion as part of our Operating Systems Hub. This data science team is part of a larger crossfunctional team that includes biologists automation engineers and software engineers collaborating to industrialize our largest transcriptomics platform at Recursion. We are an applicationoriented group whose goal is to discover at scale using the toolkit of computational science in collaboration with our counterparts in other engineering (software and data engineering laboratory automation) scientific (biology chemistry clinical science) and operational (laboratory operations regulatory affairs) disciplines.

The Experience Youll Need
- 3 years of experience building bioinformatics workflows for nextgeneration sequencing (NGS) analysis preferably in an industry setting.
- Experience analyzing NGS data to develop optimize or support an NGS assay
- Experience building and maintaining scaled production analysis workflows bioinformatics workflows a plus
- Experience with professional software development using best practices including version control (e.g. git) and code review
- High fluency in Python and data science libraries
- Experience creating effective visualizations in Python
- RNAseq bioinformatics experience a plus
