Location: Los Alamos, NM
Cap-Exempt H-1B Position — No lottery required
**What You Will Do** **Overview** **The Biochemistry and Biotechnology Group (B-TEK) in the Bioscience Division is seeking candidates interested in utilizing and developing proteomics, metabolomics, and/or lipidomics pipelines to deeply characterize a variety of sample types, coupled with bioinformatics utilizing data generated from high resolution platforms. Candidates skilled in handling large scale proteomics, metabolomics or lipidomics data are encouraged to apply. Candidates should be able to process data both quantitatively and qualitatively, and ideally have experience developing targeted, quantitative workflows. Experience implementing quality control standards for metabolomics is desired for this position; this includes the use of reference, quantitative, process control, and system performance standards. An ideal candidate will be able to work independently supporting multiple projects all of which have a National Security application. This includes, but is not limited to, developing sample preparation workflows for biofluids including saliva, urine, and/or blood, developing targeted methods for monitoring select biomarker panels including proteins and small molecules, and characterizing the in vitro, molecular response following exposure to toxicants of concern. Applicants will have access to state-of-the-art high resolution mass spectrometers including multiple Orbitrap platforms, as well as access to state-of-the-art computing resources including the use of High Performance Computing. You will be expected to publish results in high-impact peer-reviewed journals and present your work at conferences. Los Alamos National Laboratory is a multidisciplinary, collaborative environment and we expect our Postdoctoral Research Associates to exhibit this same esprit de corps.** **What You Need** Minimum Job Requirements: - Well-established record of publications in peer-reviewed journals - Communication skills evidenced by reports, publications, and oral presentat
