Job Description:

We are seeking a Translational Genetics Software Engineer, who can help develop and maintain applications and libraries to analyze and interpret millions of sequenced and deeply phenotyped human samples. To enable Regeneron to deliver better medicines to patients, we must be able as scientists to efficiently interact with analysis results from massive human genetics studies. You will work in a team that delivers high quality and flexible tools to perform and interpret large scale genomic analysis results. You will work together with the inclusive and multidisciplinary teams and colleagues at the RGC and Regeneron to translate findings into new biological insights. As a Translational Genetics Software Developer, a typical day may include: Architect elegant solutions, design robust, reusable functions and packages that abstract complex genetic analyses into clean, scalable tools. Transform one-off analyses into production-grade R packages used across the team. Build at the intersection of discovery and engineering and enable breakthrough findings in cardiometabolic disease. Mine massive sequencing datasets (2M samples) to uncover biological insights that drive drug development. Solve real computational challenges, optimize algorithms for performance at scale, refactor legacy codebases, and implement modern software engineering practices (version control, CI/CD, containerization) in a scientific context. Debug thorny issues, write comprehensive documentation, and provide technical mentorship to users of your tools. Work alongside geneticists, clinicians, and bioinformaticians to understand their analytical needs, then translate those into software solutions that help others. Co-develop novel analysis strategies that push the field forward. Integrate cutting-edge methods and stay at the forefront of statistical genetics. Youll use the latest GWAS and post-GWAS methods, integrate diverse data types, and generating testable hypotheses about human disease. Integrate different sources of data to come-up with new inferences. This role could be for you if you: Have a strong quantitative background and care about writing good code Know statistical genetics: polygenic scores, LD, GWAS and post-GWAS, and can disentangle an associated locus without needing a primer. Like finding patterns across analyses and refactoring code and duplicated logic into well-designed, composable functions rather than going for copy-paste solutions. Want to work in a team that furthers human health using access to unrivalled data. To be considered for this role, you must have: Masters or PhD degree in a Bioinformatics or Statistical Genetics, with a heavy computational component, or a degree in Computer Science, Applied Mathematics, Physics, or other quantitative field with a later specialization in genetics. Hands-on experience with statistical genetics, GWAS and post-GWAS is essential. Strong expertise in writing efficient scientific code in R, Python or other languages. Ideally, youll have developed scientific packages as well as (web) applications Experience developing and deploying in a cloud infrastructure (e.g. AWS, GCP, DNAnexus) using CI/CD and software containerization (Docker). Familiarity with standard bioinformatics tools (e.g. PLINK2, HTSlib, tabix) and data formats (e.g. VCF, BED, BGEN). Experience working with the Linux/UNIX command line and SQL databases. Please provide links in your application to any code you may have written and that you are proud of: published tools, software packages, personal projects, etc. Does this sound like you?
