About the role

  • You will work at the intersection of antigen discovery, tumor immunology, and multi-omics data analysis, applying established and emerging computational approaches to help characterize tumor biology and immune responses.
  • Analyze and integrate multi-omics datasets (e.g., WES/WGS, RNA-seq, single-cell) to characterize tumor antigen landscapes
  • Leverage internal and public datasets (e.g., TCGA, GTEx, IEDB) for biomarker exploration and hypothesis generation

Responsibilities

  • This role will support Moderna's oncology pipeline by contributing computational analyses across research and preclinical development.
  • Apply computational methods to support antigen discovery efforts and investigate tumor-immune interactions and underlying mechanisms
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams in immunology, oncology, and translational research to support experimental design and data interpretation
  • Communicate results clearly through presentations, summaries, and documentation to support team decision-making
  • Develop and maintain reproducible analysis workflows using Python, R, and cloud-based infrastructure (e.g., AWS)

Requirements

  • Ph.D., or M.S. with 4+ years of experience, in Bioinformatics, Computational Biology, or a related field
  • Experience with high-throughput sequencing data analysis, including DNA-seq and RNA-seq
  • Proficiency in Python and/or R for data analysis
  • Demonstrated ability to apply computational approaches to biological or early-stage translational research problems
  • Familiarity with neoantigen prediction approaches, including HLA typing and peptide-MHC binding tools (e.g., NetMHCpan)
  • Experience with immunogenomics resources (e.g., IEDB, TCGA)
