Who we are

Genece (pronounced GEN-iss) is a brand new, unique oncology testing services startup with proprietary technology and significant funding from GC Biopharma in South Korea.  Over the last five years, GC has developed a combination of next-generation sequencing, patented algorithms, SNV detection, fragment analysis and other techniques to perform early-stage screening for various cancers.  GC is the largest life-sciences company in Korea.

We are transferring these technologies to Genece, collaborating with GC on productizing these technologies and working independently to invent and develop additional, complementary products for the U.S. market.  We work closely with colleagues in Korea who provide significant expertise and resources.  We leverage patented mathematical methods and algorithmic enhancements to analyze NGS data.  Their approach has demonstrated high performance at a much lower cost versus competitive alternatives.  The vision is to build a second-to-none cancer screening services company by leveraging GC technology in the near term in combination with in-house technology invention and IP development longer term.

Job summary

We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Data Scientist with experience in Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) and genomics data analysis to join our early-stage cancer screening team. The ideal candidate will be responsible for analyzing and interpreting complex multimodal genomic and clinical data sets, identifying patterns, and providing insights to support the development and maintenance of a computational diagnostic platform.

Your responsibilities will be to:

• Collaborate with the research team to design and execute NGS experiments
• Analyze, integrate and visualize genomics data generated by the research team and by collaborators.
• Develop and implement algorithms and statistical models to analyze and integrate large-scale genomic and clinical data sets.
• Apply machine learning techniques to complex genomic data.
• Interpret and present results to cross-functional teams, including biologists, clinicians, and computational scientists.
• Contribute to the development of novel data analysis pipelines and tools to streamline the data analysis process.
• Keep up-to-date with the latest advances in NGS and genomics data analysis, and incorporate new technologies and methodologies into the research.

Your ideal qualifications

• Ph.D. in Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Genomics, or a related field.
• Minimum of 3 years of experience in analyzing NGS and genomics data.
• Strong knowledge of and experience using machine learning algorithms.
• Proficiency in programming languages such as Python or R and experience with statistical packages and libraries such as scikit-learn, numpy, and pandas.
• Strong knowledge of genomics, molecular biology, and cancer biology.
• Experience with cloud computing, containerization, and workflow management tools such as AWS, Docker, and Snakemake.
• Experience with databases and data management systems.
• Excellent problem-solving and analytical skills, with the ability to think critically and creatively.
• Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work effectively in a multidisciplinary team.

If you are a data-driven problem solver who is passionate about using cutting-edge technologies to advance early cancer research, we encourage you to apply for this exciting opportunity at:
