Oxford Nanopore’s sequencing platform is the only technology that offers real-time analysis, in fully scalable formats from pocket to population scale, that can analyse native DNA or RNA and sequence any length of fragment to achieve short to ultra-long read lengths. Our goal is to enable the analysis of any living thing, by anyone, anywhere!
We are looking for someone to join our Product Validation team in a role that involves running sequencing experiments across the range of Oxford Nanopore platforms to assess new developments and set expectations on the performance of our platforms.
The Details...
This role involves working in the Product Validation team. You will run and analyse sequencing experiments across the whole range of Oxford Nanopore sequencing platforms.
The purpose of the work within this team is to assess several key components. These are required for successful sequencing runs, ensuring that they are fit for purpose before releasing them to customers.
This role will also involve the running and analysis of sequencing experiments across all devices to establish a baseline dataset of performance. This helps to trend the performance of our sequencing platforms as new developments are released to customers. This is a collaborative role working with other teams to test updates and new developments.
What We're Looking For...
We'll expect you to have a degree in a suitable scientific subject or equivalent and to have relevant lab-based skills and experience.
