Job Description :
At Thermo Fisher, our mission is to cure cancer with genomic data. It is a close-knit, collaborative, cross-functional setting where we contribute to the best of our abilities and talent to deliver on our commitments to science. The software services team is tasked with applying industry best practices to the design, development, and deployment world-class software products. We are looking to hire curious, motivated, self-driven individuals with experience in bioinformatics, molecular biology, data science in clinical and research settings. We want enthusiastic, passionate team players that can own the data strategy for our Machine Learning team. You will apply your expertise to do hands on annotation of datasets – both internal and obtained from customer sites in the field. You will organize this data and devise strategies to intelligently identify problematic data for algorithm development. We require a strong combination of domain and coding skills, and an interest in learning about the latest technologies we are trying to harness to solve these urgent problems in science.
