[BBC] Vacancy NGS data manager

[Tim De Meyer]

Dear sir/madam,

please forward to the bbclist.

Thank you,
Tim De Meyer

*Vacancy: Data manager next-generation sequencing data*

**

*When to start?*

As soon as possible, August 2013 the latest.

**

*Job description*

High-throughput applications, such as next-generation sequencing, are 
becoming increasingly important in contemporary biological and medical 
scientific research. The lab for Bioinformatics and Computational 
Genomics "BIOBIX" (Dept. of Mathematical Modelling, Statistics and 
Bioinformatics at the Faculty of Bioscience Engineering, Ghent 
University), performs research in close collaboration with the 
sequencing team of NXTGNT, with typical applications in cancer and 
cardiovascular diseases. BIOBIX particularly focuses on the 
(pre-)processing, bioinformatics and statistical data-analysis of the 
obtained data.

BIOBIX is recruiting a new, enthusiastic co-worker to join our team of 
"genome hackers", initially for a period of 4 years. Your most important 
task is the daily management of huge quantities of next-generation 
sequencing data, being data transfer, safe storage and back-up, and 
automated data-preprocessing. In addition you'll also be involved in our 
research, particularly in the "PLASTOSCINE" basic research project 
attempting to elucidate learning processes in the brain on a molecular 
level.

*Your profile*

You have a professional bachelor's degree or master degree in industrial 
sciences in the field of bioinformatics (broad sense), or equivalent by 
experience. Final year students are welcome to apply as well. Solid 
knowledge of molecular biology, PERL and SQL are absolutely required, as 
well as profound experience of working in a LINUX (command line) 
environment. Experience with website-development, server maintenance 
(hard- and software) and statistical data-analysis (preferably in R) are 
appreciated. You like to work in a team, but you're also flexible and 
accountable to solve problems independently. You have strong operational 
troubleshooting and diagnostic skills. Proficiency in English is a 
requirement.

*Contact*

Send your CV, motivation letter and 2 reference letters (optional) to 
Tim.DeMeyer at UGent.be <mailto:Tim.DeMeyer at UGent.be>by the 1st of March, 2013.
