For a leading pharmaceutical company we're looking for an experienced Bioinformatician. As part of our solution, we create methods and build pipelines for harmonizing, integrating, and visualizing wide ranges of experimental data (human genetics, transcriptomics, knockouts, screening, etc).  We enable exploration via a custom portal by which scientists can interactively explore the insights these results provide.  As technology and experimental capabilities expand, our need for methods and infrastructure continues to grow.  This role will help integrate the next generation of scientific insights.
As the team is distributed between US, Canada and Poland it is required to participate in some meetings in evening calls. No later than 9 PM CET.

,[Scientific pipeline development, Technologies used: R/Python + nextflow + docker / singularity, HPC, Various scenarios: either designing the algorithm from scratch (in tight collaboration with stakeholders) or taking stakeholder's algorithm and productionalizing it (i.e. turning it from a rough script/draft to a robust, tested, performant pipeline), R/Python package development, Code review for other team members, Data integration pipelines (i.e. data extraction from databases, transformation, and rendering of an HTML report) , Maintaining CI/CD, Facilitating meetings (occasionally - cross-team, internal or stakeholder meetings), Gathering and refining requirements from stakeholders and other teams] Requirements: Python, R, Bash, Linux, CI/CD, AWS, Apache Spark Additionally: Sport subscription, Private healthcare, International projects.
