TL;DR · Scientist, Systems Immunology

Scientist, Systems Immunology joins the discovery Systems Immunology team to identify new targets for treating autoimmune and chronic inflammatory diseases. The role involves developing computational approaches to understand disease biology and drug responses by analyzing high-throughput molecular profiling data. Key responsibilities include performing quality control, clustering, and annotation on scRNA-seq and CITE-seq datasets, as well as analyzing scATAC-seq, TCR/BCR repertoires, bulk RNA-seq, and Olink proteomics data. The scientist will integrate multiomics findings to characterize cell states, investigate gene regulatory networks, and support target prioritization for pipeline drugs. Required skills include proficiency in Python and R within Linux environments, using tools like Scanpy, AnnData, Cell Ranger, and DESeq2. The work focuses on translating complex biological data into actionable insights for personalized medicine.

What you'll do

  • Perform quality control, integration, clustering, and cell-type annotation for scRNA-seq and CITE-seq datasets.
  • Integrate patient cohorts with reference atlases to perform differential expression and pathway analyses.
  • Analyze scATAC-seq data to identify differential accessibility, transcription factor motifs, and regulatory programs.
  • Analyze TCR/BCR repertoires to assess clonotype assignment, diversity, and link them to single-cell profiles.
  • Integrate bulk RNA-seq and Olink proteomics data to support target prioritization and biomarker hypotheses.
  • Maintain documented, version-controlled workflows using cloud or high-performance computing environments.
  • Contribute to scientific conference presentations, peer-reviewed publications, and regulatory filings.

What we're looking for

  • BS or MS degree in computational biology, bioinformatics, genomics, biostatistics, computer science, or a related quantitative field.
  • 5-7+ years of relevant experience for BS holders or 2-5+ years for MS holders.
  • Hands-on experience in scRNA-seq analysis or experience with scATAC-seq or TCR/BCR analysis.
  • Proficiency in Python and/or R and experience working in Linux-based computing environments.
  • Experience with bioinformatics tools such as Scanpy, AnnData, Cell Ranger, scvi-tools, DESeq2, GSEA, or WGCNA.
  • Working knowledge of statistical analysis, multiple-testing correction, batch effects, and biological replication in high-dimensional datasets.
  • Experience analyzing Olink or other high-plex proteomics datasets (preferred).
  • Experience with CITE-seq, ATAC-seq, spatial transcriptomics, or integrative multi-omics analysis (preferred).
