We are seeking a talented and experienced AI/ML data scientist to join our Veracyte's Data Science team. This position offers a unique opportunity to work with experienced professionals to drive research and develop new diagnostic products employing one of the world's largest clinical cancer databases, encompassing multi-platform digital pathology, genomic and clinical outcome data.
The successful candidate will develop digital pathology AI models for a wide range of clinical and pathology outcomes by applying and adapting state-of-the-art vision/vision-language foundation models to whole-slide images (WSIs). As a Data Scientist III at Veracyte, the candidate will be expected to assist in developing innovative solutions to complex problems under company's objective. This work will be conducted in close collaboration with other teams, including internal medical and business development teams, as well as key opinion leaders, with whom we collaborate on identifying relevant data, and developing computer vision models. The ability to explain AI/ML concepts to both experts and non-experts, including formal presentation, academic writing, and generation of publication-quality figures will be key necessary talents. The ideal candidate is passionate about data, eager to learn independently, and possesses strong analytical, problem-solving, and storytelling skills.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:
Develop digital pathology AI (DPAI) models with WSI data to predict clinical outcome and pathological/morphologic features, including adapting open-source state-of-the-art AI foundation models to Veracyte's data.
Evaluate and analyze DPAI models with respect to clinical, pathological and genomic outcomes or features, with a view to linking explainability of model features to biology.
Design and carry experiments to compare and evaluate DPAI methods. Document and explain the results.
Collaborate with both internal and external partners to understand the clinical and business requirements for given products and tailor algorithms accordingly.
Work with bioinformatician, statistician, and medical experts to document projects, including generating analyses and visualizations for publication in peer-reviewed journals.

Auto-ApplySr. Automation Engineer
San Francisco, CA job
Veracyte is seeking a highly motivated and experienced Senior Automation Engineer to join our growing Automation and Process Engineering team. This is a dynamic and impactful role where you will lead the development, optimization, and validation of automated liquid handling workflows-particularly using Hamilton platforms-for the implementation of molecular Laboratory Developed Tests (LDTs) in a regulated clinical laboratory environment.
You will collaborate cross-functionally with R&D, Clinical Operations, Software, and IT teams to design and deploy innovative automation solutions that improve throughput, reproducibility, and efficiency. This is a unique opportunity to shape the future of molecular diagnostics through cutting-edge automation and process innovation.
This is an onsite position based in our South San Francisco office.
Responsibilities
Design, program, and validate automated workflows for molecular assays using liquid handling platforms (eg. Hamilton) and other automated laboratory instruments
Translate manual molecular protocols (e.g., RNA/DNA extraction, NGS library prep) into robust, high-throughput automated methods.
Collaborate with Product Development, Clinical Operations, and Software teams to integrate automation with LIMS, bioinformatics pipelines, and data management systems.
Lead portions or entire cross-functional projects from concept through implementation, ensuring timelines and deliverables are met.
Collaborate with Equipment Engineering and Operations and QA on equipment qualification (IQ/OQ/PQ), calibration, and preventive maintenance procedures.
Contribute to the development of custom 3D printed parts, software scripts, workcells, and novel automation technologies.
Document workflows, SOPs, ERDs, and process maps in accordance with quality and regulatory standards.
Provide technical mentorship and collaborate with internal stakeholders and external vendors.
Who You Are:
You've worked with both manual and automated molecular assays and feel right at home programming Hamilton systems. You might also have experience with microarray prep, NGS library prep, or RNA/DNA extraction from sample types like FFPE, blood, or cultured cells-that's a big plus.
You know how to build automation workflows that work in a high-throughput, CLIA-regulated lab-not just in theory. You're good at spotting potential issues before they become problems, and you're the kind of person who enjoys figuring out how to fix things when they don't go as planned.
You manage your time well, stay organized, and aren't afraid to try new approaches or take calculated risks. You enjoy working with others, sharing ideas, and solving tough problems as a team. Most of all, you're excited about using your skills to help push the boundaries of what's possible in molecular diagnostics.
Required Qualifications
Bachelor's degree in Life Sciences, Engineering, or related field.
Minimum 5-7 years of industry experience in laboratory automation, with deep expertise in Hamilton Robotics platforms (preferred).
Strong background in molecular biology techniques such as PCR, RNA/DNA extraction, microarray, and NGS.
Proven experience designing, programming, and troubleshooting automated workflows in a clinical or regulated lab.
Familiarity with CLIA, CAP, GxP, and 21 CFR Part 11 compliance.
Excellent organizational, communication, and documentation skills.
Ability to work independently and collaboratively across multidisciplinary teams.
Proficiency in MS Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint).
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with scripting languages (e.g., Python, C#) and database integration.
Familiarity with Agile/Scrum methodologies and tools like Jira and Confluence.
Experience with CAD design and 3D printing.
Proficiency with Microsoft Power Platform and modern AI tools.
Experience integrating automation with cloud-based data systems and bioinformatics pipelines.
