- Developing and implementing algorithms using omics data
- Statistical analysis for clinical and bench-side research
- Assessing, understanding and implementing bioinformatics tools and generating bioinformatics pipelines
- Teaching, assisting and mentoring scientists in the field of bioinformatics

**To succeed you will have**
- PhD or equivalent working experience in computational biology, genomics, or related field
- Strong demonstrated expertise working with multiple next generation sequencing methods
- Expertise in at least one of the following areas is desirable: Immuno-oncology, Next generation sequencing, or cancer-, cell
- or molecular biology
- A highly motivated, flexible, creative and empathetic attitude to your work
- Strong abilities in problem-solving and independent thinking
