You will work closely with trait research scientists, breeders, bioinformaticians, and software engineers to translate scientific needs into comprehensive digital solutions that transform how we discover, develop, and deploy valuable plant traits. You will collaborate with teams working on knowledge graphs related to native traits and trait x genome interactions. You will own our comprehensive biotech data model and create the foundational data infrastructure that powers ML-driven decisions across every stage of our biotech pipeline.
Duties:
- Collaborate across disciplines with trait research teams to translate scientific requirements into actionable technical strategies.
- Own the technical implementation comprehensive biotech data model as the single source of truth for all biotech analytics.
- Develop specialized and adaptive AI/ML models for biotech pipeline with particular focus on optimizing trait pipeline outcomes.
- Design and implement knowledge graphs that integrate diverse biotech data, creating unified data foundations for decision-making.
- Build comprehensive AI/ML-driven decision models for the biotech pipeline that supports and automates critical decisions making.
- Architect and maintain data pipelines to support real-time decision-making.
- Implement workflow automation systems that enable end-to-end trait development pipelines.
- Deploy and scale solutions on AWS using SageMaker ecosystem and Snowflake integration.
