Computational Biologist - Genomics

Waypoint Bio is a biotech startup developing cell therapies for solid tumors using spatial and computational biology. The Computational Biologist will analyze spatial biology data, develop computational methods and scalable pipelines, and collaborate with experimental and computational scientists to evaluate and design cancer therapies.

Responsibilities:

• Analyze and interpret spatial biology data from Waypoint’s spatial pooled screening platform to evaluate cancer therapies
• Develop computational methods to design and filter thousands of novel candidate cancer therapies, e.g. by modeling and designing cells, pathways, and proteins
• Develop, maintain, and run pipelines for fluorescence microscopy image analysis and data processing
• Develop and maintain compute infrastructure to automate and scale our methods
• Collaborate with experimental scientists to innovate across disciplinary boundaries
• Collaborate on joint projects and shared code bases with other computational scientists
