100% onsite role Job Summary:

We are seeking an experienced and highly skilled scientist with a PhD in Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, or a related field to join our team. This role will focus on identifying Client target antigens for radiopharmaceutical therapy in oncology. You will play a prominent role in bioinformatics efforts analyzing large scale multi-dimensional biology datasets and real-world patient data to gain a deep understanding of the cancer landscape and identify therapeutic opportunities in areas of unmet patient need. Responsibilities

Target Antigen Discovery:

Lead efforts to identify and validate Client antigen targets for radiopharmaceutical therapy in oncology through integration of multi-omics data, including RNA sequencing, proteomics, and genomics. Bioinformatics Analysis:

Design and implement Client analytical frameworks to process, visualize and interpret high throughput sequencing and multiplex flow cytometry data from pre-clinical experiments, Real-World cohorts and internal clinical trial data to validate pharmacodynamics effects, confirm the mechanism of action, and enable patient enrichment strategies. Collaboration:

Work closely with computational biology colleagues, and engage with cross-functional teams, including discovery, translational, and clinical scientists, to provide bioinformatics expertise and guidance on experimental design. Interpretation of Results:

Generate hypothesis based on the analyses and present findings to both technical and non-technical stakeholders, providing actionable insights to inform radiopharmaceutical discovery and enable data-driven decision-making. Oncology Expertise:

Apply oncology expertise to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying cancer and therapeutic resistance, particularly in relation to radiopharmaceutical therapy. Qualifications

PhD

in Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Cancer Biology, or a related field with 3+ years of relevant industry experience. Expertise

in bioinformatics tools and software for RNA-seq, proteomics, and other omics data analysis. Individual contributor

role requiring strong background in -omic (DNA, RNA, epigenetic, proteomic) data analysis, biological interpretation and large-scale data analysis, particularly in oncology. Proficiency

in programming languages such as Python, R, and/or Perl, and experience with bioinformatics software and platforms. Strong experience

in statistical modeling and/or machine learning approaches, such as mixed-effects models, predictive modeling, etc. to represent biological concepts. Experience

with clinical database (SDTM/ADaM) and biomarker statistical analysis is a plus. Strong understanding

of cancer biology, especially in the context of targeted therapies and/or radiopharmaceuticals. Demonstrated ability

to lead projects and work in interdisciplinary teams. Excellent communication

skills, both written and verbal, with the ability to present complex data to diverse audiences including biologists and clinicians. A strong track record

of publications or contributions to impactful research. Preferred Skills
