Data4Cure - Senior scientist (Leadership track) - Computational systems biology and machine learning


Data4Cure helps transform vast biomedical datasets and literature into knowledge to advance precision medicine. We are working at the intersection of bioinformatics, machine learning and semantic knowledge integration. Over the last few years we have developed and commercialized the Biomedical Intelligence Cloud - a leading platform used by global pharmaceutical and biotech companies to synthesize knowledge from millions of datasets and publications to better understand disease mechanisms, help identify new drug targets and biomarkers, select matching patient populations, identify opportunities for drug repositioning and combine drugs to maximize therapeutic benefit.


This is an exceptional opportunity for highly motivated computational biologists and data scientists to step into a senior-level position at Data4Cure to help us drive the next stages of the development of the platform and our company. The ideal candidate for this role has significant experience analyzing large omics datasets and developing software tools in this area (in either research or commercial setting).

You will have the opportunity to own or co-own individual app or feature development projects from conception to deployment and help drive their integration into the boarder platform ecosystem. Your role will include presentations to scientists and senior leaders (pharmaceutical and biotech clients) to communicate new platform developments and case studies. In this role you will need to quickly adapt to new research areas and be able to clearly communicate scientific and bioinformatic developments to diverse stakeholders both within our company and externally. 


You will work within an exceptional group of peers: bioinformaticians, data scientists, and software engineers dedicated to applying their technical skills to advance precision medicine. You will have the opportunity to quickly progress and take on roles with increasing responsibilities within the company up to and including senior leadership roles.
