BillionToOne
is a next-generation molecular diagnostics company dedicated to developing powerful and accurate diagnostic tests that are accessible to all. The company's innovative QCT molecular counting technology significantly enhances the resolution of disease detection using cell-free DNA by over 1,000-fold. This groundbreaking technology is integral to BillionToOne's product offerings. One of BillionToOne’s flagship products, Unity Complete, is the only non-invasive prenatal screen capable of assessing fetal risk for both common recessive conditions and aneuploidies from a single maternal blood sample. Leveraging the same molecular counting technology, BillionToOne is expanding its reach into oncology with a pioneering liquid biopsy test, Northstar, that combines treatment selection with monitoring.We are looking for a
Senior Bioinformatics Scientist
