Salt Lake City, United States BioSpace, Inc. Full time
Job Details

Your work will change lives. Including your own.

The Impact You'll Make

With treatments for hundreds of diseases in our sights, we've built a data science team with domain expertise in computer science, bioinformatics, physics, biology, mathematics, applied statistics, and more. We work side-by-side with biologists, automation scientists, chemists, software engineers, and many others; together, we develop the tools and methods to turn our experimental data into treatments for pathologies that affect the lives of countless individuals. As a data scientist supporting the development of our scaled transcriptomics capabilities, you'll be designing, building, testing and deploying both development and production NGS analysis workflows.

In this role, you will leverage this data as you:
  • Develop methods, metrics, benchmarks, models and workflows to help drive drug discovery in a standardized way
  • Build scalable production bioinformatics workflows to support our NGS assays
  • Create and analyze enormous sets of connected data for a variety of programs to learn how best to advance drug discovery in an industrialized way
  • Collaborate with engineering teams to mature your models and analyses and put them into productionized flows
  • Deliver quickly and iteratively, both supporting in-flight programs and building improvements for the long-term
  • Learn to leverage new code packages and data science techniques as needed
Location:

This position is based at our headquarters in Salt Lake City, or at one of our offices in Toronto or London.

The Team You'll Join

You will be joining a platform development and workflows team that specializes in development of scaled transcriptomics at Recursion as part of our Operating Systems Hub. This data science team is part of a larger cross-functional team that includes biologists, automation engineers, and software engineers collaborating to industrialize our largest transcriptomics platform at Recursion. We are an application-oriented group whose goal is to discover drugs at scale, using the toolkit of computational science in collaboration with our counterparts in other engineering (software and data engineering, laboratory automation), scientific (biology, chemistry, clinical science), and operational (laboratory operations, regulatory affairs) disciplines. We are value-driving - data science at Recursion is not just an accelerating function; it is a core part of our value proposition. As data scientists, we are responsible for showing up as leaders and visionaries, helping to shape how Recursion delivers on our mission. We work on what matters and deliver in timescales of weeks not quarters. We focus on the impact that we are trying to make and the "why" of what we are trying to deliver and are resilient if the "how" of what we are doing needs to change.

The Experience You'll Need
  • 3+ years of experience building bioinformatics workflows for next-generation sequencing (NGS) analysis, preferably in an industry setting.
  • Experience analyzing NGS data to develop, optimize, or support an NGS assay
  • Experience building and maintaining scaled production analysis workflows, bioinformatics workflows a plus
  • Experience with professional software development using best practices including version control (e.g. git) and code review
  • High fluency in Python and data science libraries
  • Experience creating effective visualizations in Python
  • RNAseq bioinformatics experience a plus
How You'll be Supported
  • Onboarding support from a teammate acting as your "trail guide" for the first several weeks to aid in getting up to speed with Recursion systems and infrastructure
  • Receive real-time cross-functional feedback from your team including code review, weekly manager 1:1s, and cross-functional team meetings
  • Opportunity to attend annual conferences aligned with existing expertise and career development goals

You will also be eligible for bonuses and equity compensation + our comprehensive benefits package for United States based candidates. The range displayed on each job posting reflects target ranges for US new hire salaries and is determined by job, level, and market factors.

During the interview selection process, you will connect with a Talent Acquisition Partner who will be your advocate and ally to ensure you receive the appropriate compensation that meets your needs for your skills, experience, and relevant education/training, while also reviewing our very competitive total rewards package.

The Values That We Hope You Share:
  • We Care: We care about our drug candidates, our Recursionauts, their families, each other, our communities, the patients we aim to serve and their loved ones. We also care about our work.
  • We Learn: Learning from the diverse perspectives of our fellow Recursionauts, and from failure, is an essential part of how we make progress.
  • We Deliver: We are unapologetic that our expectations for delivery are extraordinarily high. There is urgency to our existence: we sprint at maximum engagement, making time and space to recover.
  • Act Boldly with Integrity: No company changes the world or reinvents an industry without being bold. It must be balanced; not by timidity, but by doing the right thing even when no one is looking.
  • We are One Recursion: We operate with a 'company first, team second' mentality. Our success comes from working as one interdisciplinary team.

Recursion spends time and energy connecting every aspect of work to these values. They aren't static, but regularly discussed and questioned because we make decisions rooted in those values in our day-to-day work. You can read more about our values and how we live them every day here .
