The incumbent will apply the latest hardware, software can cloud technologies to innovate solutions in genomics data structuring... compute workflows, and large-scale data manipulation. This role requires interaction with a multi-disciplinary team from LIMS, IT, Clinical, and Compliance operations across CUIMC. The candidate will work closely with internal and external partners to lead a team in the research, design, and development of systems addressing the data management and analysis of major genetics and genomics projects. Responsibilities • Be involved in several projects including efforts such as genomic sequence analyses, optimization of analysis approaches, and cloud-based and on-prem computation, and is a point person in developing CUIMC precision medicine pipelines. • Develop and support multiple research projects by delivering bioinformatics services for biomedical data from large datasets. • Lead a variety of projects and gain exposure to many productive areas of research. • Train and guide a team of Bioinformatic and computational scientists. • Support the storage, backup, access, and analysis of large volumes of sequencing data (>100,000 sequenced exomes and genomes). • Work closely with CUIMC central IT to migrate data and analysis to a cloud service provider as well as maintain existing software on-premises. • Develop, implement, and maintain ATAV, the primary discovery tool used for population-scale genomic analyses. • Develop, implement, and maintain a pipeline of analysis of raw genetic sequencing data, perform quality control checks, align sample data to the reference genome, and produce variants called files (VCFs), and joint-genotyped VCF files. • Manage databases, conduct statistical and genomic analysis. • Assist staff and collaborators with data access, analysis, and interpretation. • Develop methods of visualizing, exploring, and mining genomics data. • Maintain and oversee software development, code documentation, bug tracking, feature development, and audit trails. • Integrate software designs into larger ecosystems and develop best practices for implementation and test procedures in collaboration with IT. • Assist IT with troubleshooting tasks, as well as the design and process of SOPs where needed. • Collaborate and consult with researchers to plan and design scalable software solutions to meet research-related computational needs. • Demonstrate strong programming and statistical proficiency with proven expertise in genomics analyses and advanced knowledge of computational infrastructure. • Analyze data for grant and manuscript submissions. • Assist with publications. • Ensure compliance with data security and IRB rules. • Prepare an Annual Report. • Other related duties as assigned. Minimum Qualifications • Bachelor's degree or equivalent in education and experience; M.S. or PhD. in Bioinformatics, Computer Sciences, Statistics, or related discipline strongly preferred. • Minimum of 6+ years of software engineering experience including at least 4+ years of developing DNA sequencing statistical analysis tools or architecting/implementing large data-driven software tools used in high-volume operations. Preferred Qualifications • Proven expertise in building/implementing populations tools widely used by the genetics community. • Demonstrated experience with next-generation sequencing analysis. • Extensive knowledge of Java, C++, or other OO-based programming languages, as well as Perl, Python, R, Bash, or other functional scripting languages. • Experience designing relational database schemas and query optimization. • Good organization and communication skills, with demonstrated ability to productively work as a member of a team. Strong verbal and written communication skills are required. Ability to work in a fast-paced, collaborative team environment. Other Requirements • Successful completion of applicable compliance and systems training requirements
