Job Description:
The successful candidate will work closely with stakeholders across the TIEV (Target Identification and Validation in Immunology Discovery) group to advance the Single-Cell Atlas initiatives. The role will focus on analyzing large-scale single-cell transcriptomic and epigenomic datasets to build reference maps, define tissue-specific niches, and uncover their roles in health and disease.
 
Key Responsibilities:
  • Curate, harmonize, and analyze large-scale scRNA-seq and scATAC-seq datasets from internal and public sources.
  • Integrate multi-modal data to support single-cell atlas construction.
  • Develop and apply computational and AI/ML methods to classify cell states, identify regulatory networks, and generate disease-relevant insights.
  • Support interpretation of model outputs to better understand cell-state biology, tissue-specific function, and fibroblast heterogeneity.
  • Collaborate with immunology, computational, and cross-functional stakeholders to translate biological questions into computational solutions.
  • Document data curation, processing, and analysis pipelines to ensure reproducibility and transparency.
  • Contribute to time-sensitive projects supporting target discovery and prioritization.
 
Qualifications:
  • MS degree with 5+ years of experience, or PhD with 0+ years of experience, in a quantitative field such as Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Computer Science, Computational Genetics, Biostatistics, AI/Machine Learning, or a related discipline.
  • Proficiency in Python and standard ML/data science libraries.
  • Experience working in HPC or cloud environments for large-scale omics datasets.
  • Domain knowledge in single-cell analysis, chromatin accessibility analysis, or systems immunology.
  • Strong attention to detail, documentation, and communication skills.
  • Ability to independently design, execute, and troubleshoot computational workflows.
 
Preferred Technical Skills:
  • Experience with NumPy, Pandas, Scikit-learn, Matplotlib, and Seaborn.
  • Familiarity with TensorFlow and/or PyTorch.
  • Proficiency with Git for version control and collaboration.
  • Hands-on experience with single-cell analysis tools such as Scanpy, Seurat, or Bioconductor.
  • Exposure to multi-modal integration methods such as CITE-seq, ATAC-seq, or spatial transcriptomics.
 
Additional Technical Skills (a plus):
  • Experience with cell type annotation, clustering, and trajectory inference.
  • Knowledge of regulatory network inference and peak-to-gene linking.
  • Experience building multi-modal AI/ML models that connect transcriptomic, proteomic, and imaging data.
