About this position

KOTAI Biotechnologies Co., Ltd. is recruiting two bioinformatics researchers for its Research and Development Department in Minoh, Osaka. The company originated from Osaka University and works at the intersection of immunology, bioinformatics and biotechnology, developing biomarkers, drugs and vaccines in collaboration with pharmaceutical companies and academic researchers.

The researchers will contribute to service development, customer and collaborator support, and technology development across advanced bioinformatics applications. Core research and development activities include single-cell RNA sequencing analysis, spatial gene expression and spatial transcriptome analysis, immune repertoire analysis, and the analysis of high-throughput experimental data generated through next-generation sequencing.

Responsibilities include developing, implementing and delivering bioinformatics analytical services; creating new bioinformatics analysis methods; conducting collaborative research with experimental and clinical researchers; and constructing analysis pipelines linked to experimental systems. The work offers an opportunity to apply computational biology, programming and statistical expertise to biomedical research and the development of new treatments and biomarkers.

KOTAI provides an interdisciplinary environment in which bioinformatics researchers work closely with experimental scientists, clinical researchers, collaborators and customer companies. The company particularly welcomes researchers interested in cutting-edge technologies such as spatial gene expression analysis and motivated to contribute to society through medical research.

Funding details

Annual salary of ¥5,000,000–¥9,000,000, determined according to experience and achievements and paid on an annual salary basis. The position may be permanent or a fixed-term contract, with possible conversion to permanent employment.
