Manager Genomics information

What is a Manager Genomics?

A Manager Genomics is a professional who oversees teams and projects involved in the analysis, interpretation, and application of genomic data. They are responsible for managing laboratory operations, ensuring data quality, coordinating research initiatives, and facilitating collaboration between scientists, clinicians, and bioinformaticians. In addition to technical expertise in genomics, this role requires strong leadership, project management, and communication skills to drive successful outcomes in research or clinical settings.

What are some common challenges faced by a manager in genomics, and how can they be addressed?

Managers in genomics often face challenges such as balancing rapidly evolving technologies with resource constraints, ensuring data accuracy and security, and leading diverse interdisciplinary teams. Staying updated with the latest advancements while aligning them with organizational goals requires continuous learning and adaptability. Effective communication and collaboration with bioinformaticians, laboratory staff, and external partners are crucial for successful project outcomes. Proactively fostering a culture of collaboration and professional development helps address these challenges and ensures the team remains innovative and productive.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a manager in genomics, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Manager Genomics, you need a strong background in molecular biology or genetics, advanced degrees (such as a PhD or MSc), and experience in genomics research or clinical genomics. Familiarity with next-generation sequencing (NGS) platforms, bioinformatics tools, laboratory information management systems (LIMS), and relevant certifications are typically required. Leadership, project management, and effective communication are vital soft skills for coordinating teams and bridging scientific and operational needs. These skills ensure rigorous scientific outcomes, efficient workflow management, and successful collaboration across multidisciplinary teams.

What is the difference between Manager Genomics vs Laboratory Supervisor?

AspectManager GenomicsLaboratory Supervisor
CredentialsBachelor's or Master's in Genetics, Molecular Biology, or related fields; often requires experience in genomicsBachelor's degree in Life Sciences or related field; laboratory experience
Work EnvironmentResearch labs, biotech companies, academic institutionsClinical or research laboratories, biotech firms
Employer & IndustryBiotech, pharmaceutical, research institutionsHospitals, research labs, biotech companies
Primary FocusOverseeing genomics projects, data analysis, team managementManaging daily lab operations, supervising technicians, ensuring compliance

While both roles involve laboratory work, a Manager Genomics focuses on leading genomics research projects and data analysis, whereas a Laboratory Supervisor manages daily lab operations and staff. The Manager Genomics typically requires advanced knowledge of genomics techniques, while the Laboratory Supervisor emphasizes operational oversight.

Job description

ABOUT SINGULAR GENOMICS
Singular Genomics is inventing at the forefront of genomics, one of the world's fastest-growing industries. The commercially available G4ยฎ Sequencing Platform is a powerful, highly versatile benchtop genomic sequencer designed to produce fast and accurate results. In addition, the company is currently developing the G4Xโ„ข Spatial Sequencer, an upgrade to the G4, which will leverage Singular's proprietary sequencing technology, applying it as an in situ readout for transcriptomics, proteomics and fluorescent H&E in tissue, with spatial context. Singular Genomics' mission is to empower researchers and clinicians to advance science and medicine.
We foster a culture of creativity and technical excellence, both catalysts for innovation. We celebrate diversity, emphasize collaboration and, as we rapidly mature, we are constantly looking at ways we can do better for our people.
Our Headquarters are located on the Torrey Pines Mesa, in La Jolla, California at the center of the biotech hub. Our Manufacturing facility is in Sorrento Valley.
Position Summary:
As a Spatial Sequencing Associate 2, you will support a collaborative team of engineers and scientists to run customer tissue samples on the G4X Spatial Sequencer. The ideal candidate will have experience in standard molecular biology techniques for handling nucleic acids (e.g., DNA/RNA purification, PCR amplification, isothermal amplification, and library preparation for next generation sequencing) and be familiar with common enzymes that interact with DNA/RNA. Experience with next generation DNA sequencing (instrumentation and analysis) and handling of tissues on flow cells is a plus.
Expertise in immunoassays (IHC, IF, ISH), familiarity with microscopy-based readouts (particularly fluorescence) and experience with multiplexed assay workflows are essential. You will provide guidance to assay developers to identify appropriate controls, optimize workflows, and implement enhancements that improve assay robustness and reliability.
Responsibilities:
  • Execute experiments to characterize antibody activity using immunofluorescence or IHC across diverse tissue types and conditions.
  • Support antibody validation efforts using molecular biology techniques (e.g. SDS-PAGE), immunoassays, and/or G4X spatial biology assay across various tissue types.
  • Day-to-day operation of the G4X sequencer.
    • Manually prepare customer samples provided for spatial sequencing.
    • Load consumables and program sequencing runs.
    • Perform primary analysis of run data.
    • Perform regular instrument maintenance.
  • Daily run metrics and quality of sequencing performance review.
  • Complete documentation to support data capture, forms, logbooks, and inventory batch records.
  • Contribute to late-stage optimization of spatial biology workflows, ensuring readiness for product launch.
  • Scheduling, usage forecasting and inventory management of consumables.
  • Complete documentation to support logbooks, and inventory batch records.

Qualifications:
  • BS in a Science or Engineering field or 5 years of working experience in equivalent field.
  • Strong molecular biology laboratory skills, demonstrated by work experience.
  • Hands-on experience with multiplexed and immunoassay workflows (required).
  • Strong analytical and documentation skills; experience maintaining accurate, detailed records.
  • Experience with running, maintaining, and troubleshooting lab equipment.
  • Working knowledge of fluorescence microscopy and imaging-based readouts is a strong plus.
  • Familiarity with spatial biology platforms and workflows is a strong plus.
  • Experience interpreting NGS-based transcriptomic and proteomic data is a strong asset.
  • Desire and ability to work in a small interdisciplinary team to develop new technologies at a rapid pace.

The estimated base salary range for this role based in the United States of America is: $74,900 - $88,100. Additionally, this role is eligible for to receive equity as part of the compensation package. Compensation decisions are dependent on several factors including, but not limited to, an individual's qualifications, location where the role is to be performed, internal equity, and alignment with market data.
