THE MISSION: WHY WE EXIST
Genomics is a science-led transatlantic TechBio combining large-scale genetic and health data with proprietary analytics to accelerate drug discovery and advance predictive, preventative healthcare. We are united by a single vision to help people live longer healthier lives, using the power of genomics.
Genomics aims to help people live longer, healthier lives in two ways: super-charging drug discovery and development for novel treatments with our AI-enabled advanced genetic analytics platform, and by helping people understand their personal risk of common chronic diseases through polygenic risk scores - giving doctors and health systems the chance to get the right people into the right prevention, screening and treatment programmes at the right time.
ROLE PURPOSE
Genomics runs on multi-trillion-row, petabyte-scale genetic and health data. Mystra is the analytical data platform that makes that usable, and MystraAI is the agentic layer we're building on top of it. This is a Staff-level role for someone who wants to push the boundaries of what a data platform can do — solving hard, novel infrastructure problems at genuine scale, and setting the technical direction that other teams build on.
You'll lead the analytical data platform and our Data-as-a-Service offering, shape the data foundations behind MystraAI, and line-manage a small team of engineers while staying deeply hands-on. If you want your work to sit at the intersection of large-scale systems engineering and genuinely meaningful science, this is it.
A Day in the Life
The role spans the full depth of the platform — from database internals up to the systems that serve data across the product. On any given day you might be:
