Job Description
(up to E13 according to the TVöD Bund salary scale) About the Role The successful candidate will be part of a dynamic, interdisciplinary team operating at the intersection of computational biology, machine learning, phenotype predictions as empowered by proteomics. This position offers a unique opportunity to contribute to cutting-edge research leveraging state-of-the-art computational infrastructure and proteomic data to address fundamental biological questions. Key Responsibilities: Develop and apply computational workflows to analyze large-scale proteomic datasets. Implement machine learning models to predict phenotypic outcomes from proteomic and related omics data. Collaborate closely with experimental and computational scientists in the Ralser and Vingron labs. Contribute to the development of novel methods for data integration and interpretation. Communicate results effectively through presentations, reports, and peer-reviewed publications. Qualifications: PhD in bioinformatics, computational biology, data science, or a related field. Expertise in data analysis, machine learning, and/or high-throughput proteomics. Strong programming skills (e. g., Python, R, or similar languages). Experience with proteomics data analysis tools and platforms is a strong advantage. Excellent communication skills, both written and oral, and the ability to work collaboratively in an interdisciplinary environment. What We Offer A stimulating and supportive environment at two leading research institutes. Access to world-class computational resources and proteomics platforms. Opportunities for professional development and training. A vibrant and diverse international research community. Flexible working hours & arrangements.
