We are seeking an experienced and motivated Senior Bioinformatics Officer to support Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) based projects within the Breakthrough Centre. The successful post holder will actively participate in (i) the design of novel NGS analysis pipelines and (ii) the analysis of NGS data. The post holder will be expected to use these skills to become involved in a wide variety of projects associated with the dissection of cancer.
The NGS facility at the Breakthrough Centre, ICR works closely with ICR scientists and external collaborators. This post would give the successful applicant the opportunity to apply NGS analysis to projects with both translational and basic biological impact.
Experience in biologically relevant programming as well as experience in analysis of NGS data is essential. The successful post-holder will be expected to have a publication record in the field that demonstrates this experience. Mathematical and/or statistical background is also desirable.
Applicants should hold a post-graduate qualification in Bioinformatics or a relevant area with extensive programming experience and understanding of the UNIX/Linux environment. Experience in working with relational databases is desirable.
