Computational Biologist, CRISPR Informatics (Biohub SF)

role at

Chan Zuckerberg Biohub Network . What You\'ll Do

Architect, build and maintain computation workflows for CRISPR design and edit-outcome analysis. Analyze genome-scale CRISPR perturbation datasets and identify emergent gene-function and pathway networks. Work with molecular biologists, imaging scientists, and software engineers to plan large scale CRISPR experiments and interpret results. Package, document and rigorously test code, computational pipelines and datasets for open-source release. Author publications and present research findings at conferences. What You\'ll Bring

Essential

Ph.D. in Computational Biology, Bioinformatics, Bioengineering, Genomics or a related discipline. Candidates with a master’s degree and 3 years of relevant experience will be considered. 2+ years of deep, current knowledge of CRISPR genome-engineering technologies (e.g. CRISPRi/a, base/prime editing, CRISPR-based imaging) and the underlying molecular biology. Proven track record of developing computational pipelines for CRISPR design and edit-outcome analysis. Fluency in Python (or similar), experience with workflow management frameworks (e.g., Nextflow, Snakemake), and strong software engineering practices including testing, continuous integration, documentation, and version control. A collaborative, team-focused mindset coupled with outstanding communication skills. Nice to have

Experience in analyzing CRISPR perturbations datasets at single cell resolution (e.g. perturb-seq). Experience in designing, optimizing and executing bioinformatics pipelines for amplicon sequencing, whole-genome sequencing and genome variant analyses. Experience in utilizing high-performance computing systems for large-scale data processing and analysis. Prior contributions to open-source projects or data resources. Compensation
