Flagship Pioneering, Inc.
Pioneering Medicines:Senior Scientist Bioinformatics
Flagship Pioneering, Inc., Cambridge, Massachusetts, us, 02140
Position Summary
We are seeking a bioinformatics expert to join the Pioneering Medicines Translational Sciences Team. This person will lead the computational efforts on drug discovery programs, integrate, analyze and interpret omics data and effectively communicate results to impact target discovery, translational and patient stratification efforts across disease areas. This individual will collaborate with the translational research, biology, ADME/Tox and early development teams, in order to help execute on research program strategy. Please note this role requires a minimum of 3 days per week onsite at our Cambridge, MA office. Key Responsibilities
Lead Translational Bioinformatics projects in various areas, including but not limited to oncology/I&I, cardiovascular, renal, metabolic and pulmonary diseases. Coach other team members on strategic thinking and next level synthesis and communication skills. Propose, evaluate and champion state-of-the-art computational omics approaches to answer key biological questions. Mine genomics datasets to identify novel targets for small molecule and biological therapies. Drive analyses or internalize expertise if needed, for a rich suite of data modalities: bulk and single cell RNAseq/genomics, spatial genomics, proteomics, and state-of-the-art modeling techniques, tailored to specific programs and disease areas. Work closely with the in-vivo, in-vitro and translational research teams to translate biological questions into analytical solutions, including influencing experimental design, analyzing data and visualizing results. Deliver impact to projects by identifying technical trends, both internal and external to your subject area. Minimum Requirements
Ph.D in Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Biological Sciences, or related discipline 4+ years of industry experience as a bioinformatics representative on drug discovery programs. Understanding of biology and/or translational research and ability to address biological questions using computational approaches; in-depth knowledge of cancer genomics, tumor immunology, immunology or other related areas. Successful track record collaborating with cross-functional scientific teams. Experience with state-of-the-art methods for next generation sequencing data (NGS). Experience integrating genetic, genomic and pathway/network datasets with novel experimental data to derive biological understanding. Fluency in R, Python or any other broadly used programming languages and environments like Code Ocean, AWS, git. Excellent problem-solving, teamwork and communication skills, with an ability to effectively interact with people in a dynamic matrix environment, both internally and externally. Strong scientific curiosity and initiative. Flagship Pioneering
