Sydney, Australia CSIRO Full time

**Acknowledgement of Country**:
CSIRO acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the land, sea and waters, of the area that we live and work on across Australia. We acknowledge their continuing connection to their culture and pay our respects to their Elders past and present. View our vision towards reconciliation

**Child safety**:
CSIRO is committed to the safety and wellbeing of all children and young people involved in our activities and programs. View our Child Safe Policy.

**The opportunity**:

- **3-year postdoctoral role for an early career researcher with a PhD in bioinformatics, computer science or data science**:

- **Be part of the largest eHealth research group in Australia helping deliver innovation to the health system**:

- **Join the Australian e-health Research Centre (AEHRC) and be part of Australia's newborn screening population program**

CSIRO Early Research Career (CERC) Postdoctoral Fellowships provide opportunities to scientists and engineers who have completed their doctorate and have less than three years of relevant postdoctoral work experience. These fellowships aim to develop the next generation of future leaders of the innovation system.

Within the AEHRC, the charter of the Transformational Bioinformatics Group is to develop novel bioinformatics solutions for research and industry using the latest developments in cloud and BigData infrastructure.

The CERC Fellow will join AEHRC and collaborate closely with external collaborators (including the NSW Health Pathology and commercial entities) to innovate and evaluate new technology (e.g., genomic sequencing) for the detection of more preventable childhood diseases and enable the rapid addition of new diseases in newborn and neonatal screening programs. However, the inclusion of genetic information, the most personally identifiable information, necessitates robust privacy and security solutions and innovative approaches to informed consent. Therefore, the CERC Fellow will aid in developing novel approaches for dynamic consent and building engineering solutions around this, among other aspects of genome informatics for the research program.

**Your duties will include**:

- Carrying out innovative, impactful research of strategic importance to CSIRO that will, where possible, lead to novel and important scientific outcomes.
- Developing and evaluating innovative concepts, theories, tools, and techniques related to genome data informatics, dynamic consent for newborn and neonatal screening programs.
- Producing high quality scientific and/or engineering papers suitable for publication in peer-reviewed journals, client reports, blog posts, and granting of patents.
- Recognising and exploiting opportunities for innovation and the generation of new theoretical perspectives, and progressing opportunities for the further development or creation of new lines of research.

**Location**: Sydney NSW, Adelaide SA, Brisbane QLD, Canberra ACT, or Melbourne VIC
**Salary**: AU$96k - AU$105k plus up to 15.4% superannuation
**Tenure**: Specified term of 3 years
**Reference**: 96691

**To be considered you will need**:

- A doctorate (or will shortly satisfy the requirements of a PhD) in a relevant discipline area, such as bioinformatics, computer science or data science. Please note: To be_ _eligible for this role you must have no more than 3 years (full-time equivalent) of postdoctoral research experience_._
- Proven impact from developing solutions on public cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, GCP, Alibaba cloud) or advanced high-performance compute (HPC) with demonstrated software/systems engineering practices (code version control, deployment automation, performance optimisation).
- Evidence of advanced data analytics and programming capabilities in more than one language relevant for bioinformatics (e.g. Python, Java, C++, Scala, BASH, R, Julia).
- Practical experience/Familiarity with genome analytics of WGS and other ‘omics data types.
