Field Application Scientist

Be part of a dynamic team that is using nanotechnology to enable routine, accurate, cost-effective analysis of genomic structural variation, in support of our mission of elucidating the genetic underpinnings of disease, increasing diagnostic yield, and ultimately improving patient outcomes. Nabsys is the pioneer in high-definition electronic genome mapping. Headquartered in Providence, RI, Nabsys uses proprietary electronic nanodetectors to analyze long DNA molecules traveling at high velocity. Today Nabsys stands at the threshold of a new era in genomics with the introduction of the OhmX platform. This groundbreaking technology empowers us to map human genomes at an unprecedented scale. Building on our expertise, we're once again setting our sights on the whole-genome mapping market, with a renewed focus on the human genome.Title: Field Applications Scientist Nature of Role: The Field Applications Scientist plays a pivotal role supporting our growing customer base in the Boston/East Coast region. The hired candidate must reside within driving distance of Providence, RI and be willing to travel frequently to customer sites. Reporting directly to the Director of Field Applications, the FAS is responsible for directly supporting sales and application development in the field and at our newly designated San Diego laboratory. The FAS has an exclusive focus on the newly launched electronic genome mapping (EGM) instrument (OhmXTM) and accompanying analytics software. Working closely with the commercial team, the FAS is instrumental in helping navigate the application space for EGM. The successful candidate must have previous experience as an application scientist in some capacity related to genomics instrument sales or orthogonal technologies and the enthusiasm to work as a member of a multi-disciplinary team in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment. This is a phenomenal opportunity for growth as we launch a next generation platform that will make a significant impact on the course of genomic analysis.Responsibilities:Engage with new and existing customers to educate and support our end-to-end workflow for EGMProvide client and product feedback to internal teams as required (voice of customer)In pre-sales environments, conduct seminars to educate and scientifically collaborate with customers in the planning and design of scientific projects to either support the purchase of an instrument or through partnership with an Nabsys core labsIn post-sales environments, train new customers and scientifically partner with clients in project scoping and design elements to increase product adoption and usage and participate in the cultivation of revenue generating post-sales support and consultative opportunitiesPerform installations of new instrumentsTrain new customers and partner with clients to increase product adoption and usageWork with product management and marketing teams to position and promote EGM applicationsDocument activities and customer interactions in the CRM software () Conduct presentations on technology, applications, and use cases at tradeshows, lunch and learns, and sponsored seminarsContribute to the development and refinement of processes and materials used by the Nabsys organization to improve the information and tools needed by the global team to advance the needs of our customers and to help to build a world-class customer experience organizationRequirements: MS/PhD in a relevant field is required, with 4+ years of hands-on experience working in a wet lab with molecular biology protocols Experience with nucleic acid extraction and sequencing library preparation as well as experience in high molecular weight DNA isolation and handlingExperience leading the design and execution of application briefs, technical notes, and case studiesKnowledge in the use of genomic sequencing technologiesStrong analytics background with exposure to bioinformatics pipelinesExposure to long-read NGS, FISH, microarray, karyotyping, and/or genome mapping a plusExperience with laboratory developed tests and CLIA environment a plusTrack record of quality work through publication.This is an onsite position in Providence, RI that requires up to 50% domestic & international travel with some remaining time at a designated laboratory location and occasional trips to San Diego, CACompensation:Competitive salary and bonus structureEquity stakeBenefits include health, dental, vision, 401(k) plan with 50% match up to 6% of base salary, unlimited vacation, life insurance
