Drive discovery and translational projects in collaboration with AI and internal research

teams with a primary focus on integrating scRNA-seq and spatial biology into Natera's

pipeline.

Collaborate with external translational teams on building single-cell and spatial biology

workflows into their early phase clinical studies.

Leverage novel technologies to inform collaborative reverse and forward translation

efforts as well as internal target discovery and validation projects.

Design and execute lab-based research programs that bridge clinical observations with

mechanistic hypotheses, supporting asset progression and CDP expansion

Technology & Capabilities

Lead and contribute to technology area team focused on single cell genomics and spatial

omics, building out multiomics capabilities to support foundational models and RWD

efforts

Partner with internal and external collaborators to establish, optimize, and deploy cutting-

edge platforms for translational applications

Serve as an internal expert and thought leader on emerging genomics technologies

relevant to oncology drug discovery and development
