About the role
Variant Bio is developing life-saving therapies by studying the genes of people with exceptional health-related traits. By identifying communities with unique genetic architectures and outlier phenotypes, Variant Bio has identified novel human genetic evidence that is the basis for programs with breakthrough potential across multiple therapeutic areas. The company's research is powered by its proprietary Inference platform, which integrates across deep phenotyping and multi-omic data using statistical genetics and AI/ML approaches to identify and validate therapeutic targets. In addition, Variant Bio has established strategic partnerships with Novo Nordisk and Boehringer Ingelheim, validating the strength of the platform and enabling the advancement of novel therapeutic programs through world-class development expertise.
With ethics at its core, the company launched an unprecedented benefit-sharing program in 2020, in which it has pledged tangible benefits that directly impact the communities it partners with throughout the world.
ABOUT THE ROLE
The Health Data team at Variant Bio turns data generated in the field, across our international partner cohorts, into harmonized, analysis-ready resources that power genetic target discovery. We are looking for someone who enjoys the challenge of complex, real-world data and is motivated to build robust, reproducible solutions for maximizing its quality and comparability across studies, modalities, collaborators, and collection sites. In this role you will own the curation, quality control, and harmonization of multi-omic, survey, biochemistry, and clinical data as it arrives from field sites around the world. You will help develop the standards and pipelines that keep that data trustworthy at scale. Success in this role depends on good scientific judgment about how data is produced: an instinct for where recruitment, sampling, batching, or measurement can introduce bias. We value curiosity and resourcefulness alongside technical skill. There is room to grow from running and adapting existing processes toward owning pipelines and contributing to downstream analyses.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
- Curate, clean, and harmonize multi-omic, survey, biochemistry, and clinical data from international field sites and partner cohorts, reconciling differences across studies, platforms, and sites.
