We are seeking an exceptional Staff Computational Biologist to drive the next generation of software and data products supporting Target Identification and Prioritization across our research organization. This hybrid role is ideal for someone who thrives at the intersection of biology, computation, product strategy, and engineering execution.
As a senior member of the Translational Platform Engineering team, you will act as a product owner, technical strategist, and rapid prototyper, responsible for shaping the roadmap and delivering tools that power discovery teams. Your day to day includes working with biology data scientists to harden their notebooks and workflows, pushing new releases to production (on a predictable schedule), and sitting with biologists and chemists as they use the UIs to advance our translational biology efforts. The Staff Computational Biologist is the key to translating use cases into technical specifications for engineering teams.
This is a highly visible and impactful role where you will contribute to a human-biology-first approach to drug discovery programs by leading the end-to-end lifecycle of platform capabilities used daily by our Target ID scientists.
