Statistical Geneticist

**About Us**

Founded in 2015,
- **Deep Genomics **is a drug development company that aims to revolutionize medicine by leveraging expertise in artificial intelligence (AI) and genome biology. We have built the world’s first, and by far the most advanced, AI platform that is able to untangle the enormous complexity of RNA biology and find the best targets, mechanisms, and molecules.

The thesis here at
- **Deep Genomics **is that everyone, at some point in their life, will face a genetic condition, whether Mendelian or complex, and we aim to be there for them with a genetically precise therapy. We take immense pride in our team of people whose backgrounds span a diverse range of disciplines including those found in a traditional biotechnology company, as well as machine learning, laboratory automation, and software engineering.

We are seeking a highly motivated human statistical geneticist based in Toronto/Boston/North America (Remote) to contribute to our target discovery efforts, in relation to our oligonucleotide expression increase and knockdown platform.

This work will be carried out in collaboration with team members from other disciplines (genetics curation scientists, bioinformaticians, software engineers, computational biologists and machine learning scientists).

**What you will bring**:

- PhD in human statistical genetics, population genetics, or related fields
- Solid knowledge of statistics
- Proven experience with large-scale data analysis
- Advanced knowledge of R and PLINK
- Robust publication track record
- Basic understanding of human disease biology

**Preferred But Optional Qualifications**:

- Postdoctoral research experience
- Familiarity with high performance computing environments.
- Experience in the therapeutics industry

**What we offer**:

- A highly competitive salary and meaningful equity compensation
- Exceptional opportunities for learning and growth
- Leading role in developing the future of genomic analysis and therapy
- A bright, collegial, highly-motivated team working at the intersection of the most exciting areas of science and technology
- Deep Genomics thanks all applicants, however only those selected for an interview will be contacted.
