Bioinformatics Scientist
Boston Children’s, a Harvard affiliated Hospital
This position sits within our Research Informatics, which supports basic, translational, and clinical research across a highly advanced computing environment that includes high-performance computing clusters, virtual machines, petabyte-scale storage, and cloud platforms. The role offers the opportunity to work closely with PhD-level bioinformatics scientists and researchers on impactful projects involving single-cell RNA-seq, bulk RNA-seq, proteomics, imaging, and other next-generation data types relevant to mouse, human, and pediatric disease research.
The individual in this role will help build pipelines and web-based tools for analysis, integration, and sharing of complex biomedical data. Depending on the candidate’s intellectual contribution, the role may also provide opportunities for authorship on high-impact publications.
We welcome candidates who could potentially step into the role by the end of May. The position may be based in a hybrid arrangement in Boston, with partial relocation support available, and in some cases may also be considered as fully remote. At present, we are able to support employees based in all U.S. states except California.
While the formal minimum qualifications include a bachelor’s degree and at least one year of relevant experience, for candidates coming directly from a recent master’s and PhD program we would strongly prefer those who already have at least one strong first-author paper.
