Predicine is a precision oncology company advancing the fight against cancer through cutting-edge genomic technologies and liquid biopsy solutions. We partner with pharmaceutical companies, clinicians, and researchers worldwide to bring next-generation diagnostics from bench to bedside - faster, smarter, and more accessible. Join a team where your work directly impacts patient outcomes and the future of cancer care.

We are seeking a highly motivated senior bioinformatics scientist to support NGS-based liquid biopsy studies and translational bioinformatics programs. The incumbent will analyze cfDNA/cfRNA, tissue, RNA-seq, multi-omics, and clinical data to develop biomarker testing strategies for cancer diagnosis and clinical applications. This is a client-facing scientist role - you'll represent the scientific team in technology meetings with pharmaceutical clients, KOLs, and client data scientists, translating client needs into analysis plans, result interpretation, and follow-up support with a client-success mindset. This is an exciting opportunity to join a fast-growing startup, accelerate your growth, and make a positive, immediate impact on cancer diagnosis and treatment.

The Senior Bioinformatics Scientist, NGS and Liquid Biopsy will lead bioinformatics analysis in support of NGS-based liquid biopsy studies and translational bioinformatics programs. This role will analyze cfDNA/cfRNA, tumor tissue, RNA-seq, multi-omics, and clinical datasets to develop and refine biomarker testing strategies for cancer diagnosis and clinical applications. Serving as a client-facing scientific partner, the incumbent will represent the scientific team in technology meetings with pharmaceutical clients, KOLs, and client data scientists - translating client needs into analysis plans, interpreting results, and providing ongoing follow-up support with a client-success mindset. The position will also develop and improve computational pipelines, statistical models, and machine-learning approaches for sequencing QC, variant analysis, and study-specific analyses, while coordinating internal and external collaborations, scientific presentations, publications, and mentoring across translational bioinformatics projects.
