jobbeskrivelse:

Data Scientist within Protein Engineering

Modelling & Predictive Technologies / Global Research Technologies / Denmark / Måløv

Are you interested in driving data science solutions at the heart of drug development processes? Do you enjoy working in an international and challenging research environment, where you will actively contribute to the design of next generation medicines that will change the life of patients with diabetes and other serious chronic diseases? Do you have a deep curiosity for modern data science technologies and thrive in an informal working environment? Then you may be our next highly valued Data Scientist in the ‘Modelling & Predictive Technologies’ Department at Novo Nordisk A/S.

 

About the Department & the Position

We collaborate closely with research scientists across the R&D area to improve and accelerate active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) and drug product (DP) designs of new peptides and biologics. We have access to advanced state-of-the-art protein modelling software and are developing and applying data analysis tools and prediction models to a variety of biological and chemical data, including high-throughput analytical data and images.

Your responsibility will be to expand our data science platform with new prediction models by employing in-house data from the protein engineering area, as well as advancing our data science methodologies. For instance, we expect you to contribute to the development and application of better data wrangling and analysis algorithms, including cutting-edge machine learning approaches and advanced analytics methods. An important part of the job is also to engage with stakeholders across the interdisciplinary and international organization.

 

Requirements

• PhD within a discipline with strong modelling and computational components, such as Computer Science, Biostatistics, Data Science and Cheminformatics, and at least 3 years postdoctoral experience in the pharmaceutical/biotechnology industry or academia. More senior people are in particular encouraged to apply.
• Demonstrated track record of developing and applying data science solutions including the analysis, integration and interpretation of chemical and/or biological data
• Excellent knowledge and practical experience with statistical analysis, modern machine learning methods and data presentation
• Strong programming and scripting skills (e.g. Python, R, Matlab, C++)
• Familiar with developing dashboards and web services are considered a plus
• Desire to drive challenging data analytic problems in a dynamic working environment as well as ability to engage and collaborate with colleagues across different scientific disciplines
