Sr. Software Engineer - Full Stack
Personalis, Inc. is a leader in advanced genomics for precision oncology. NeXT Personal is an ultra-sensitive, tumor-informed, WGS-based liquid biopsy assay designed to detect minimal residual disease (MRD) and cancer recurrence. It leverages whole-genome sequencing of a patient's tumor and matched normal samples to create personalized panel of up to 1,800 somatic variants, enabling the detection of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) at very low levels (down to ~1-3 PPM) in blood samples. To enable cancer and population sequencing, Personalis' Clinical Laboratory was built with a focus on clinical accuracy, quality, big data, scale, and efficiency. Personalis is based in Fremont, California.
