Senior Bioinformatics Scientist

Natera is seeking a Senior Bioinformatics Scientist to lead the architecture, development, and automation of high-throughput genomic pipelines. This role is responsible for building production-grade software tools to analyze next-generation sequencing (NGS) data including variant calling, fusion detection, and data quality control. The ideal candidate combines a deep understanding of sequence alignment algorithms with strong object-oriented programming skills to design scalable computational workflows in a fast-paced, mission-driven environment.

Primary Responsibilities

• Analyze complex genomic datasets leveraging scaled in-house pipelines, partnering cross-functionally with wet-lab scientists and statisticians to rapidly deliver data-driven answers to critical research goals.
• Architect, build, and deploy automated analysis pipelines for diagnostic tests, integrating robust capabilities for fusion detection, variant calling, and automated quality control metrics. <li style="line-height: 2;
