Who we are 

At PrognomiQ, we aim to develop and commercialize transformative tests for early detection and treatment of cancer and other complex diseases. To accomplish this, we are leveraging leading proteomics technology, including the Proteograph product suite from Seer Bio, in combination with other multi-omics assays to develop unprecedented molecular views of health and disease. We are a team of experienced and accomplished scientists supported by a group of leading investors in healthcare and technology. 

We are seeking a versatile and experienced Data Scientist who also possesses a strong background in Data Engineering. In this hybrid role, you will leverage your expertise in data engineering to optimize data infrastructure while using your data science skills to analyze large molecular datasets and train machine learning models.    

Would you like to be at the leading edge of multi-omics data generation and analyses that changes how cancer and other complex diseases are detected and treated? Or are you looking to bring innovative and disruptive solutions to market? If you answer “yes” to either of these questions, let us know by applying!
