The Hoffman Lab at the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre, seeks new members for our team. We develop machine learning techniques to better understand chromatin biology. These models and algorithms transform high-dimensional functional genomics data into interpretable patterns and lead to new biological insight. A key focus of the lab is to train a new generation of computational biologists.
We seek postdoctoral fellows for several projects in computational genomics and machine learning. Selected projects include:
1. Integrating epigenomic and sequence data to better understand human gene regulation.
2. Developing deep learning techniques to find novel behavior in multiple functional genomics datasets.
3. Creating models of transcription factor binding that allow us to predict the effects of perturbations.
Required qualifications: Doctorate in computational biology, computer science, electrical engineering, statistics, or physics obtained in the last five years. Submitted papers in genomics or machine learning research. Expertise in Python and Unix environments.
Preferred qualifications: Experience with epigenomics and graphical models. Published papers in peer-reviewed journals or refereed conference proceedings. Expertise in R, C, and C++.
We will consider candidates who need a VISA to work in Canada.
To apply: We will accept applications until the position is filled. Please submit a CV, a PDF of your best paper, and the names, email addresses, and phone numbers of three references to the address at http://pmgenomics.ca/hoffmanlab/join/#postdoc

We are now looking for a talented data scientist to join our team and help shape the recommendation algorithms that underpin our product.
Our data science team is at the heart of the company and plays a crucial role in analysing and visualising customer behaviour - using the data to build statistical and machine learning models that generate highly tailored recommendations and drive the product forward through data-led optimisations. We're looking for someone with strong analysis, statistics, machine learning and programming skills (we’re particularly fond of Python and R). It's a great opportunity to work for a small company (8 employees), while analysing data from some of the largest e-commerce sites in the country and beyond. Contact peter.fine at 15gifts dot com (our head data scientist) to find out more!

#200Democratizing higher education so that it is affordable and accessible is our ultimate goal. We're working on some huge problems that profoundly change lives.
We're hiring for pretty much every type of engineer (iOS, Android, front-end and backend web) to help build out the classroom of the future.
We produce our own content, so we're also hiring course developers. A course developer has a huge impact on the way we teach and the courses we build.
Whatever level of engineer you are, I'm sure we have an opening that fits for you. As for the company itself, I can speak to how amazing an environment it is here. People work sane hours, have autonomy, and are able to work on problems that interest them.
I'm personally responsible for the mobile team, but I'm happy to help with any other roles you might be interested in. Feel free to email at oliver@udacity.com!
