Senior Bioinformatician (Post-Doctoral Level)
Location: House of BioHealth, Luxembourg
Type: Full time
Role overview
Exobiosphere is seeking a Senior Bioinformatician (Post-Doc level) to join its R&D team and take ownership of hands-on bioinformatics and data analysis activities supporting space-derived biology, high-content imaging, and multi-omics data integration.
This role is execution-focused, embedded directly in R&D projects, and central to transforming complex biological datasets into actionable insights, models, and bioinformatics-driven product concepts. The position offers high scientific autonomy, close interaction with leadership, and exposure to strategic and commercial dimensions without people-management responsibilities.
Responsibilities
Core Bioinformatics & R&D Responsibilities
Design, implement, and maintain bioinformatics pipelines for the analysis of complex datasets generated from space missions, high-throughput screening (HTS), high-content imaging (HCI), and multi-omics experiments.
Analyze and integrate genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, DNA methylation, and imaging data into coherent biological interpretations.
Curate, process, and integrate publicly available omics datasets with internally generated data to support comparative and longitudinal analyses.
Develop in silico models and data-driven representations of complex biological processes such as ageing, disease progression, and treatment response.
Apply appropriate statistical, machine learning, and AI approaches to extract patterns, identify biomarkers, and prioritize biological targets.
Work closely with experimental scientists to ensure bioinformatics workflows are aligned with assay design, sample constraints, and biological questions.
Contribute to data visualization, reporting, and interpretation for internal decision-making and external partners.
Product & Business-Facing Contributions (Light BD Component)
Help package bioinformatics outputs into clear, high-value analytical products (e.g. datasets, models, digital twins, reports).
Contribute to the definition of bioinformatics-driven service offerings, including implementation strategies and feasibility assessments.
Support discussions with external partners (pharma, biotech, space agencies) by translating biological and computational results into clear value propositions.
Provide technical input for grant applications, collaborative projects, and partner proposals when relevant.
Requirements
PhD in Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, Systems Biology, or a closely related field.
Post-doctoral or equivalent experience (academic or industry), with strong hands-on data analysis skills.
Proven experience analyzing large-scale biological datasets, ideally including multi-omics and/or imaging data.
Solid programming and data analysis skills (e.g. Python, R, workflow tools).
Strong understanding of experimental biology and ability to work closely with wet-lab teams.
Ability to work independently, manage multiple analyses, and deliver results in a fast-moving R&D environment.
Preffered qualifications
Experience with machine learning or AI methods applied to longevity biological data.
Familiarity with longitudinal or time-series biological data.
Interest in translational research, product development, or data-driven biotech services.
