Principal Applications Scientist Oxford Nanopore Technologies Ltd
We seek a senior level scientist who has pioneered new applications development on current next-generation sequencing platforms. This means both theoretical knowledge and practical experience of novel experimental design, appropriate sample prep methodologies (DNA isolation, fragmentation etc) and appropriate analysis leading to new ways of measuring biological phenomena.
Typically a geneticist or genomicist who has worked as part of a multi-disciplinary sequencing team encompassing the whole experimental cycle from sample collection through to high quality publication, the ideal candidate needs to be an innovative thought-leader and scientific risk taker, probably also having links to other key people in the field. He/she will also have done or supervised some bioinformatics work, or have links to clinical or translational environments.
The candidate needs to be able to communicate credibly with senior laboratory personnel at leading research institutes, about how a sequencer might fit into their current or future scientific environment. Yet they also need to be able to talk to ground-level scientists who will use the machine, and develop robust experimental protocols applicable to use in the wider broad access research community.
