Our customers at top-tier pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and academic institutions, as well as cutting-edge start-ups, rely on our proprietary technologies for consistent, reliable, high-quality data, even on the most difficult projects. A full-service provider, we provides Sanger DNA sequencing, gene synthesis, molecular biology, high throughput/next generation sequencing, bioinformatics, and GLP regulatory services

How You’ll Make an Impact We are seeking a collaborative Bioinformatician to design and develop a next-generation scientific workflow platform that integrates sequencing data, synthetic biology expertise, public biological knowledge, and AI-enabled analytics. This role will translate scientific and operational requirements into scalable, reusable workflows, analytical services, and self-service capabilities for plasmid and viral vector applications. Working across scientific, laboratory, software, quality, product, and client-facing teams, the successful candidate will establish robust platform architecture, automate data processing and interpretation, and deliver validated solutions that improve consistency, scalability, traceability, and scientific decision-making.

Responsibilities:

Design and implement reusable algorithms, services, and workflow components to evaluate sequence designs, construct risks, manufacturability, and functional performance.

Build configurable analytical frameworks that integrate public scientific resources, proprietary algorithms, and standardized decision rules to support sequence and vector design workflows.

Develop customer-facing analytics, visualizations, APIs, and self-service tools that expose platform capabilities and turn biological data into actionable insights and recommendations.

Architect, develop, validate, and maintain scalable workflows for long-read, short-read, Sanger, and hybrid sequencing applications, including automated quality control, assembly, variant analysis, exception handling, and results delivery.

Apply AI and machine learning to automate workflow orchestration, data interpretation, quality assessment, troubleshooting, summarization, and continuous platform improvement.

Partner across informatics, laboratory, quality, and commercial teams to define requirements, prioritize capabilities, integrate instruments and systems, and scale scientific workflows into supported digital products.

Create and maintain platform architecture documentation, workflow specifications, validation records, operating procedures, release documentation, and user guidance.

Maintain expertise in workflow architecture, sequencing technologies, vector biology, synthetic biology, AI, bioinformatics, and scientific software engineering.
