Us

We are a microbiome science company pioneering innovations in probiotics and living medicines to impact human and planetary health. Founded to realize the potential of microbes, our platform enables the translation of breakthrough science across a portfolio that encompasses both indication-specific and preventive applications across gastrointestinal and digestive health, women’s health, skin and dermatological health, oral care, pediatrics, gut-brain function, metabolic function, and nutrition.

Our consumer innovations are commercialized under Seed® with a mission to bring much-needed precision, efficacy, education and perspective-shifting science communication to the global category of probiotics. And our environmental research is conducted under SeedLabs, which was founded to develop novel bacterial interventions to enhance biodiversity and restore ecosystems impacted by human activity. LUCA Biologics, our women’s health biotech company co-founded with Dr. Jacques Ravel, develops living medicines targeting the vaginal microbiome for urogenital and reproductive health.

Founded in Venice, CA with a global team across Europe, Australia, Asia and North America, Seed Health was co-founded by Ara Katz and Raja Dhir, alongside a scientific board comprised of leading scientists, researchers, and clinicians across the fields of microbiology, immunology, bioinformatics, dermatology, oral health, vaginal health, gastroenterology, mental health, pediatrics, and nutrition.

Seed Health is looking for a staff bioinformatics scientist for our dynamic, multidisciplinary R&D team to discover and develop innovative, microbiome-based, groundbreaking products for human health. 

Who you are 

You are passionate about discovery and translational analysis to unlock creative new insights from big multi-omics datasets (e.g. from clinical trials or multiple cohorts). In your current role, you are immersed in analytical work in bioinformatics and statistics, and work eloquently with large data sets, while also creatively adopting new tools to improve infrastructural and workflow efficiency. You are capable of designing and executing both defined and open-ended analysis plans in a fast-paced environment, and you are excited about using new tools and techniques to more efficiently and effectively execute on analyses. Ideally, you have familiarity with the nuances and requirements of clinical trial or human cohort datasets, including the need for detailed documentation, accurate metadata, statistical analysis plans, regulatory compliance, and cohort or clinical trial designs. Additionally, you possess a strong background in bioinformatics, genomics, human clinical trial data, and cloud computing and have strong, demonstrated software engineering skills.

You thrive …
