Senior Computational Biologist, Multi-Omics (Crop Genomics), Ghent
Warning! This email originated from outside of PSB. Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. -------------------------------------- Dear, We are seeking a Senior Computational Biologist to own the multi-omics evidence layer behind our trait discovery platform at Rainbow Crops. Rainbow Crops leverages multiplex genome editing, precision breeding, and AI to engineer crops with the genetic superpower to adapt to climate challenges, reduce chemical inputs, and enhance nutritional value. This is a hands-on individual-contributor role for a senior scientist who decides which data is worth generating and ingesting, designs the experiments that produce it, and turns the resulting datasets into defensible gene-to-trait evidence. You will report to the Head of AI and work as a senior peer alongside our AI and plant genomics experts. You will take full ownership of the multi-omics workstream, which both expands what the company can do and creates capacity in a small, fast-moving team. The role rests on three pillars: selecting and ingesting the datasets that expand our Trait Foundry knowledge graph, leading the experimental design, and running single-cell and other omics analyses across all projects. You are expected to challenge proposed designs, flag confounders before data is generated, and take a critical view of which datasets earn their place in our knowledge graph. About Rainbow Crops Rainbow Crops leverages multiplex genome editing, precision breeding, and AI to engineer crops with the genetic superpower to adapt to climate challenges, reduce chemical inputs, and enhance nutritional value. By targeting complex traits and improving multiple characteristics simultaneously, our technology tackles plant traits that have historically been difficult to enhance. We partner with seed companies and nonprofits to develop and make these advanced plant genetics accessible, benefiting farmers, consumers, and the environment, while driving sustainability and global food security. www.rainbowcrops.com.
