A master’s degree is not required; candidates may qualify through demonstrated experience, coursework, research projects, internships, or prior bioinformatics work.

Key Responsibilities:

Analyze transcriptomic datasets, including bulk RNA-seq, RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing, Long-reads RNA sequencing and related sequencing approaches.
Assist with alternative splicing, isoform-level analysis, or RNA-binding protein-related datasets, depending on project needs.
Generate organized summary tables, clear reports, and publication-quality figures.
Perform pathway and enrichment analyses to support biological interpretation.
Maintain organized scripts, analysis workflows, and documentation.
Communicate analysis plans, progress, results, and troubleshooting needs clearly.
Participate in project meetings and contribute to data interpretation.
