Job description

Overview
WuXi Biology is seeking a Bioinformatics Scientist (Senior or Principal level) with experience in Oligonucleotide Drug design.
Responsibilities
  1. Oligonucleotide drug design

Responsible for design of small nucleic acid drugs (e.g., siRNA, ASO). Use bioinformatics tools and algorithms to analyze gene expression profiles, variations, and splicing isoforms in biological samples for target selection. Apply machine learning platforms for oligo sequence design. Read and run Python, R, and Bash scripts. Optimize and improve existing design algorithms. Create new design workflows and platforms including design of chemical modifications for oligo drugs. Actively participate in project discussions and reports.
  1. Off-target analysis

Understand and apply principles and algorithms for off-target evaluation. Analyze and interpret high-throughput next-generation sequencing data, including data preprocessing, quality control, alignment analysis, differential expression analysis, and full pathway analysis. Adjust sequence alignment program parameters to meet the needs of short sequence matching.
  1. Data mining and database construction

Use bioinformatics resources from public databases (like NCBI, Ensembl, UniProt, etc.) and combine with the company's internal data to build knowledge bases and databases to accelerate oligo drug discovery.
  1. Cross-department collaboration

Work closely with wet lab drug discovery team including in vitro and in vivo teams, chemistry team, etc., participate in project discussions, support bioinformatics aspects of the projects. Analyze results and obtain insights to improve the bioinformatics models and workflows.
Qualifications
