The Chan Zuckerberg Biohub San Francisco (CZ Biohub SF) is an independent nonprofit research institute that brings together three powerhouse universities - Stanford, UC Berkeley, and UC San Francisco - into a single collaborative technology and discovery engine. CZ Biohub SF itself supports some of the brightest, boldest engineers, data scientists, and biomedical researchers to investigate the fundamental mechanisms underlying disease and develop new technologies that will lead to actionable diagnostics and effective therapies. We are guided by our values of scholarly excellence; disruptive innovation; hands-on engineering/hacking/building; partnership and collaboration; open communication and respect; inclusiveness; and opportunity for all.Our Vision
We pursue large scientific challenges that cannot be pursued in conventional environmentsWe enable individual investigators to pursue their riskiest and most innovative ideasThe technologies developed at CZ Biohub San Francisco facilitate research by scientists and clinicians at our home institutions and beyondDiversity of thought, ideas, and perspectives are at the heart of CZ Biohub Network and enable disruptive innovation and scholarly excellence. We are committed to cultivating an inclusive organization where all colleagues feel inspired and know their work makes an important contribution.The Opportunity
The Data Science platform at CZ Biohub SF is seeking an Associate Bioinformatics Scientist/Computational Biologist to join a fantastic team of computational biologists and data scientists. We develop computational methods, pipelines, and software that enable Biohub’s research across quantitative cell biology and infectious disease. In this position, you will closely collaborate with biologists and engineers from Biohub research groups such as the Royer group and the Balla group.Potential projects include:Developing workflows to process and analyze single-cell multi-omics datasets to gain a holistic view of transcriptional regulation during zebrafish developmentParticipating in data integration across multiple modalities to create a resource for the broader scientific communityContributing to interactive web portals for in silico genetic perturbations on developing zebrafish at whole organism scaleThis is an excellent opportunity to do both research and engineering at the intersection of bioinformatics, infectious diseases, and cell biology.You will
Contribute to scientific discovery via analysis of single-cell multi-omics datasetsParticipate in developing bioinformatics tools and web portalsOptimize and execute data processing pipelines in an HPC environmentPartner with biologists to conduct data mining and exploratory data analysisAuthor publications and disseminate research discoveries to the scientific communityYou have
Essential
S. or M.S. degree in Data Science, Computational Biology, Bioinformatics, or a related disciplineA minimum of 2 years of experience with scientific programming languages and data science workflowsFamiliarity with professional software development best practicesProven ability to implement exploratory data analysis and statistical inference in the context of scientific researchA collaborative, team-focused mindset coupled with outstanding communication skillsNice to have
Experience with single-cell RNA-seq data analysis and/or other multi-dimensional omic data modalitiesFamiliarity with the concepts of molecular biology, cell biology, genomics, and biostatisticsExperience with high-performance computing (HPC) clusters and job schedulersEnthusiasm for systems biology and development of open-source softwareExperience with using machine learning algorithms to extract insights from complex datasetsResearch experience in academic laboratories is highly preferredThe Chan Zuckerberg Biohub requires all employees, contractors, and interns to provide proof of full COVID-19 vaccination by their start date.Compensation
$72,000 - $99,000What We Provide
Resources to disrupt and innovate at the frontiers of our knowledge of biology and diseaseA collegial and collaborative environment consisting of diverse expertiseAccess to collaborators, resources and facilities at our three partner universities and at partner organizationsCompetitive compensation and benefits commensurate with experienceBenefits
We offer a robust benefits program that includes healthcare coverage, life and disability insurance, commuter subsidies, family planning services, childcare stipend, 401(k) match, flexible time off, and a generous parental leave policy.The CZ Biohub Network is an equal opportunity employer committed to diversity of thought, ideas, and perspectives.
