The role requires deep expertise in NGS technologies, an understanding of regulatory environments including CAP/CLIA and IVD product development, and the ability to design, develop, and optimize genomic assays to provide actionable insights. Responsibilities Lead bioinformatics design, development and validation efforts in assay development for new and on-market products. Coordinate planning, execution, and delivery within timelines and budget constraints as part of project core teams. Apply advanced knowledge in bioinformatics, genomics, and assay technologies to contribute to development principles and achieve assay development objectives. Drive study design and all analysis for assay development in collaboration with cross-functional teams. Develop statistical and machine learning techniques to evaluate assay performance and create optimization strategies. Communicate analysis results, methodologies, and scientific findings to internal teams, external collaborators, and stakeholders. Develop scalable, production-grade workflows for high-throughput NGS data analysis using AWS and containerized environments. Facilitate successful production pipeline deployment by working with infrastructure and engineering teams. Ensure compliance with regulatory standards (CAP/CLIA, FDA, IVDR) throughout the bioinformatics development lifecycle, including rigorous testing and documentation. Contribute to regulatory submissions and audits by providing technical documentation and validation reports. Provide scientific guidance and mentorship to junior bioinformatics team members.
