Our mission is to make biology easier to engineer. Ginkgo is constructing, editing, & redesigning the living world to answer the globe's growing challenges in health, energy, food, materials, & more. Our bioengineers make use of an in-house automated foundry for designing & building new organisms. Today, our foundry is developing over 40 different organisms to make different products across multiple industries.

As a Mammalian Computational Biologist in our NGS group, you will support our growing Mammalian foundry programs by delivering insights from genomic, transcriptomic, & other NGS datasets. Example projects you may tackle include characterization of cell lines with known productivity for therapeutic classes using genomic (SNP, CNV, rearrangements), transcriptomic (expression levels, full length cDNA sequencing) & epigenetic (HiC, ATAC-Seq, methylation profiling) approaches & profiling cell lines for cellular therapies such as CAR-T to assess performance characteristics such as activity or longevity. In this role, you will be tackling projects that use cutting edge technologies such as phenotypic screens using Berkeley Lights Beacon instruments to associate characteristics such as growth, protein production. etc. with genotypes or expression phenotypes. 

By forming a collaborative loop with Ginkgo engineers, you will help design better experiments & reach conclusions faster. By adding your own expertise to an interdisciplinary team of bench scientists, computational biologists, data scientists, & software engineers, your role will be critical to developing world-changing methods for engineering biology.
