About Active Motif

Active Motif is a global leader in developing and delivering innovative tools and services for epigenetics and gene regulation research. We are committed to providing high-quality products, cutting-edge technologies, and exceptional scientific support to the life science, clinical, and pharmaceutical research communities. Our comprehensive portfolio of epigenetics assays, sequencing services, and analytical solutions empowers researchers to investigate chromatin biology, gene regulation, and disease mechanisms with confidence.

About the Role

As a Bioinformatics Scientist, you will serve as a critical bridge between complex genomic data and actionable biological insights. In this role, you will analyze and interpret large-scale genomics and epigenomics datasets generated from next-generation sequencing (NGS) experiments. Your work will involve developing and maintaining robust analytical pipelines, applying advanced statistical and computational methods, and collaborating with internal scientists and external customers to drive discovery.

You will be part of a multidisciplinary team where independent problem-solving meets effective collaboration. Day-to-day, you will support assay development and the implementation of novel analytical methods for transcriptomic and epigenetic datasets. Whether working with ChIP-seq, CUT&RUN/CUT&Tag, ATAC-seq, RNA-seq, Hi-C, DNA methylation, or single-cell sequencing technologies, you will ensure our pipelines remain optimized and cutting-edge. You will also stay current with emerging bioinformatics methods, software, and best practices to continuously improve our analytical capabilities.

What We Offer

Active Motif is dedicated to supporting the well-being and growth of our employees. We offer a comprehensive benefits package including Medical, Dental, and Vision insurance with no-cost employee premium plans and 50% subsidized premiums for dependents. We also provide Life Insurance, Short- and Long-term Disability Insurance (employer-paid), and a 401(k) plan available after 90 days of employment.

Our commitment to work-life balance is reflected in our generous Paid Time Off (PTO) of 120 hours annually, plus 10 paid major holidays and year-end holiday time off. Additionally, we offer a free Electric Vehicle Charging Station at our facilities.

Equal Opportunity Employer

Active Motif is an equal opportunity employer. We celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive environment for all employees and applicants.
