Role Summary
Work directly with the Project Scientist to build, optimize and run high-throughput bioimage processing pipelines and statistical workflows, bridging raw imaging and spatial datasets with multi-omics integration to power our digital tissue mapping work.
Key Responsibilities
- Standardize, QC and process whole-slide images, correcting for stain variability and artifacts
- Implement and optimize deep learning/ML algorithms for single-cell segmentation, phenotyping and nuclear morphology classification
- Develop spatial alignment algorithms to co-register multiplexed imaging with spatial transcriptomics and 3D histology maps
- Manage and analyze multi-omics and genomic pipelines with version control and reproducibility
- Process and integrate liquid biopsy sequencing metrics with tissue microenvironment datasets
- Prepare analytical reports and visualizations for clinicians, biologists and data scientists
Required Qualifications
- B.E/B.Tech in Computer Science, or Master's in Computational Biology, Bioinformatics, Data Science or a related field
- 2 years of hands-on experience in biological data analysis, Python/R scripting, image processing and genomics in cancer research
- Attention to detail, reproducibility and strong communication skills
Preferred
- Cloud computing experience (AWS/GCP)
- Peer-reviewed publications in computational biology, bioinformatics or oncology
- Familiarity with spatial transcriptomics platforms (Visium, CosMx) and scRNA-seq tools
- Open-source bioinformatics contributions
