How much do bioinformatics postdoctoral jobs pay per year?

As of Sep 4, 2026, the average yearly pay for bioinformatics postdoctoral in the United States is $59,022.00, according to ZipRecruiter salary data. Most workers in this role earn between $49,000.00 and $66,500.00 per year, depending on experience, location, and employer.

What is a bioinformatics postdoctoral?

A Bioinformatics Postdoctoral job is a research-focused position for individuals who have recently earned a Ph.D. in bioinformatics, computational biology, or a related field. Postdocs work on advanced computational and statistical methods to analyze biological data, often collaborating with interdisciplinary teams. Responsibilities may include developing algorithms, analyzing genomic or transcriptomic data, and contributing to scientific publications. These positions are typically temporary, lasting two to five years, and serve as a bridge to independent research roles or industry positions.

What types of research projects do bioinformatics postdoctoral researchers typically work on?

Bioinformatics Postdoctoral researchers often engage in projects involving large-scale genomics, transcriptomics, or proteomics data analysis, such as identifying disease-associated genetic variants or understanding gene expression patterns. Their daily responsibilities may include developing new algorithms, running computational analyses, and interpreting complex biological datasets in collaboration with experimental scientists. Team structures can vary, but most positions involve close interaction with both computational and laboratory researchers, providing an interdisciplinary work environment. Participation in publishing research findings and presenting at conferences is also common, offering valuable experience and professional growth.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the bioinformatics postdoctoral position, and why are they important?

To excel as a Bioinformatics Postdoctoral, you should possess a Ph.D. in bioinformatics, computational biology, or a related field, along with strong analytical and programming skills. Experience with software tools like R, Python, Linux/UNIX, high-throughput sequencing platforms, and bioinformatics databases is typically expected. Outstanding problem-solving abilities, communication skills, and collaborative spirit help distinguish top candidates. These competencies are crucial for effectively designing experiments, analyzing complex biological data, and contributing to multidisciplinary research teams.

Job description

Excite yourself by turning multi‑omics data into actionable biological insights that drive discovery programs toward the clinic? We are seeking a Bioinformatics Sr ScientistII to provide robust bioinformatics analyses and pipelines across Global Biology projects.

Responsibilities
  • Provide bioinformatics support to Global Biology project teams across discovery‑to‑clinic activities, translating biological questions into fit‑for‑purpose analyses.
  • Analyze, integrate, and interpret multi‑omics datasets (e.g., transcriptomics, genomics, proteomics) to generate clear, decision‑driving insights.
  • Develop, implement, and maintain reproducible computational pipelines and analysis workflows for data integration and downstream interpretation.
  • Collaborate with external partners to co‑develop tools, pipelines, and best practices, including incorporation of machine learning/artificial intelligence approaches where relevant.
  • Partner cross‑functionally with Chemistry, Drug Metabolism and Pharmacokinetics/Safety, Formulation, and Clinical stakeholders to ensure analyses address key development questions.
  • Communicate results through clear visualizations, summaries, and presentations tailored to both scientific teams and senior/executive audiences.
Qualifications
  • Ph.D. in Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Genomics, or a related field with postdoc experience.
  • 4+ years of relevant experience in biotech/pharmaceutical industry or equivalent translational research experience.
  • Will consider M.S. candidates with 8+ years of bio/pharma experience.
  • Demonstrated ability to analyze and integrate multi‑omics data, including transcriptomics, genomics, and proteomics.
  • Experience developing computational pipelines/tools for data processing, integration, and analysis with an emphasis on reproducibility.
  • Exposure to or experience with machine learning/artificial intelligence methods applied to biological datasets.
  • Strong communication and presentation skills, with the ability to explain complex analyses to cross‑functional and senior stakeholders.
About the Team

You will join the Global Biology research organization and work closely with project teams and key functional areas to deliver high‑quality analyses that enable timely decisions. The role interfaces broadly across research and development and supports internal and external collaborations that strengthen data integration and translational impact.

Inclusive Hiring Statement

We are committed to an inclusive recruitment process and welcome applications from all job applicants.
