Orakl Oncology is a techbio company, based in Paris and aiming to transform the fight against cancer. We combine best-in-class biology with data-powered and AI-driven analysis to enable companies to identify and optimise new anti-cancer therapies. We are an interdisciplinary platform working at the intersection of cell biology, engineering and machine learning.

Orakl Oncology is a spin-off from the Gustave Roussy Institute, our offices are located in Paris and our lab in le Kremlin-Bicêtre, France. We have more than 30 years of combined research in the oncology field and we’re now looking for the best talents to come and join our ambitious team in the fight against cancer!

Orakl Oncology’s lab generates large volume of imaging and molecular data and we have access to deep, matched clinical data from real life patients in the clinic. This unique database allows us to extract critical information and generate transformative insights for our internal research teams and for our partners. In particular, we believe this wide collection of multimodal data can be the key to discover new therapeutic targets and to better understand the behaviour of drugs before they reach the clinic.

As the Lead Computational Biologist you will design and implement Orakl’s computational biology strategy. In particular you will:

• Lead Orakl’s target discovery strategy
• Lead Orakl’s biomarker design and discovery strategy
• Collaborate with our scientists on our internal R&D programs
• Present our scientific programs to external collaborators and to the broader scientific community on a regular basis
• Build multi-modal analysis pipelines integrating patient and PDO-derived omics and wetlab data
• Collaborate with cell culture and data management teams to integrate genomics and experimental data workflows

If you’re passionate about precision medicine, multi-modal approaches and functional assays, if you enjoy collaborating with interdisciplinary teams and want to be a part of building the next-generation platform for making biotechnological products - please apply! This position involves significant ownership of the research projects and can evolve into a key management position within Orakl.

This position reports directly to our CTO and also needs to work effectively and collaboratively with the teams at Orakl Oncology responsible for cell culture, wet lab experimentation and data management.

Even if you don't feel that you meet every single requirement, we still encourage you to apply :)
