Early Career Researchers - Computational Associate I, Broad-wide openings

We fill entry level Computational Associate positions year round. By applying to this posting, we will align you with the best matched lab based on your research interests, skills, and availability.

Computational Associates' responsibilities may include but are not limited to:

• Write and refine scripts to process and analyze large datasets while using new ways to explore data
• Conceive, implement, and test statistical models
• Contribute to the development and improvement of analytical tools Interface and collaborate with scientists, clinicians, and experimental experts at the Broad and with external partners
• Learn how to troubleshoot with support from your mentor to resolve problems and ensure data quality control
• Join regular lab meetings, contribute to team discussions, support broader research goals, and potentially contribute to publications

Minimum Qualifications:

Candidates interested in the Broad Biomedical Post-Baccalaureate Scholars Program (BBPS) should complete an ECR application to begin the process. Visit the BBPS page for more details for application process and deadlines. Please note that the BBPS admissions process is separate from the ECR hiring process. Receiving a job offer does not guarantee admission into BBPS, but in order to be admitted to BBPS, you must have a job offer from a research group at the Broad Institute.

What to expect next: Please allow 10 minutes to complete the initial application process as it needs to be completed in one sitting. We will ask for your CV/resume and responses to a short questionnaire. If you advance to next steps, you will then receive an email request to complete an on-demand interview as the first step in the interview process and will also let you know about current lab openings. Those responses will be reviewed by our recruiting team and possible next steps will be communicated via email.
