- Understanding of the range and limitations of existing bioinformatics tools. In addition, you have experience with scripting languages, e.g. python or R.

Additional skills, experience and knowledge in the following areas are also desirable:

- Experience with NGS data analysis using long reads. Experience with analysis of bulk or single cell RNA sequencing is a plus
- Experience with workflow management systems (e.g. nextflow), good software development practices (e.g. version control), advanced data visualisation, and statistical data analysis
- Hands-on wet lab experience, or a track record of close interaction with wet lab scientists, on sample and library preparation for NGS
- Good scientific literacy skills, including experience with reading and writing research reports or publications, and up-to-date knowledge of NGS literature
- Postdoctoral research experience or similar research experience in biotechnology industry

We are seeking someone who is enthusiastic about discussing experimental science and bioinformatics and presenting data. You will have excellent verbal and written communication skills, ability to prioritise and you are a motivated self-starter.
