Description
Location: Remote in the United States (Foresight Dx business unit, a Natera company)
About the Company
Foresight Diagnostics is a molecular diagnostics company pioneering non-invasive cancer detection through highly sensitive, cell-free DNA-based liquid biopsy technologies. Our proprietary methods - originally developed at Stanford University - are designed to detect smaller tumors earlier and enable more personalized treatment strategies for patients with cancer.
We sit at the intersection of molecular biology, bioinformatics, and next-generation sequencing (NGS), and we translate rigorous science into clinically meaningful solutions. Following our acquisition by Natera, we now combine the agility of a mission-driven startup with the scale and resources of a global leader in cell-free DNA testing. It’s an exciting moment to join us.
Headquartered in Boulder, Colorado, our team operates in a high accountability, collaborative environment where quality and continuous improvement aren’t just values - they’re how we work every day.
About the Role
As a Bioinformatics Analyst, you will be responsible for analyzing sequencing data to deliver clinical diagnostic results to internal and external stakeholders. You will maintain and improve existing workflows, while developing new workflows to automate the growing needs of the company. This position will work directly with the operations, science and engineering organizations, with opportunities to grow in all three domains and their intersections. This position has flexibility for fully onsite, hybrid or remote work; if hired as remote worker, quarterly travel to our headquarters in Colorado is expected.
What You Will Bring:
-
BA/BS or MS degree in Biology, Computer Science or a related field, and a passion for molecular biology or bioinformatics
-
Strong programming ability in Python
-
Knowledge of software version control (git, github)
-
Experience with data analysis and visualization
-
Excellent oral and written communication skills for both scientific and general audiences
-
Big bonus points if you have experience with processing Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) data; cloud computing (AWS, GCP, Azure) and/or scientific computing (HPC); and software testing practices.
What You Will Do:
-
Process Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) data using existing workflows
-
Work alongside molecular biologists, providing analytical and computational support to experiments and development
-
Triage failure modes in NGS processing, adding to shared codebases as necessary to improve reliability and efficiency
-
Assist in validation and verification studies of liquid biopsy products
