Job Description:

Ready for an exciting biotech startup? We are looking for you! We are a startup in the field of genetic diagnostics. Our mission is to improve the lives of people with cancer by developing and providing tools to better understand and manage cancer. We achieve this by using liquid biopsies to identify a patient's individual genetic cancer signature through a blood sample and tracking it throughout the course of their disease.

If you get excited by working with large genomic datasets and want to play an active role in shaping the future of a startup, we want to hear from you!

Tasks

Tasks

Your task will be to support us in our mission with your expertise in Bioinformatics and Data Science. Some of your tasks will include:

• Explore and visualize complex biological data to gain insights and support research goals
• Run, maintain, and improve existing bioinformatics and analysis pipelines in an IVD environment
• Implement innovative analysis methods for Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) data
• Maintain and enhance our current systems to ensure robustness and scalability

Requirements

What We’re Looking For

• A relevant university degree (MSc, BSc + solid experience, or equivalent); a PhD is a plus, but definitely not required
• 2+ years of hands-on experience in bioinformatics or related fields
• Experience in statistical analysis & visualization of large datasets
• Strong proficiency in Python (bonus points for experience with other languages)
• Working knowledge of command-line tools (Linux, Bash) and version control with Git

Nice to Haves

• Experience with developing and implementing bioinformatics pipelines
• Familiarity with machine learning/deep learning techniques
• Comfortable working in high-performance computing (HPC) environments
• Basic understanding of software development practices
• Experience writing and validating medical device software

This role is open-ended! We’re looking for someone with solid general knowledge, a willingness to learn, and a mindset for growth. You don’t need to check every box. Whether you’re coming from academia, industry, or something in between, we value diverse backgrounds and experiences. We’re a small, ambitious team where things move fast and roles are flexible. You won’t be focused on just one thing—every day is different, and your work will directly impact our mission.

We offer you the opportunity to work in a young and dynamic startup. This allows you to actively shape a new company and take on responsibilities. You can work on your own ideas, implement them, and grow with us. If interested and eligible, you can also pursue a PhD with us. We provide a competitive salary package based on your qualifications and the usual benefits, including an element of financial participation in our success.

We look forward to receiving your application (in English) through our form. Feel free to contact us with any questions.
