Senior Data Scientist # 4630

Our mission is to detect cancer early, when it can be cured. We are working to change the trajectory of cancer mortality and bring stakeholders together to adopt innovative, safe, and effective technologies that can transform cancer care. We are a healthcare company, pioneering new technologies to advance early cancer detection. We have built a multi-disciplinary organization of scientists, engineers, and physicians and we are using the power of next-generation sequencing (NGS), population-scale clinical studies, and state-of-the-art computer science and data science to overcome one of medicine’s greatest challenges. GRAIL is headquartered in the bay area of California, with locations in Washington, D.C., North Carolina, and the United Kingdom. It is supported by leading global investors and pharmaceutical, technology, and healthcare companies.

In this role, you will work at the intersection of machine learning, genomics, and clinical science to advance early cancer detection. You will collaborate closely with scientists, engineers, and clinicians to identify novel biological signals, improve classification performance, and develop innovative approaches for cancer detection and categorization using GRAIL’s rich sequencing datasets. This is a highly impactful role where you will apply state-of-the-art machine learning techniques—including modern AI approaches—to real-world clinical challenges. Your work will directly contribute to scientific discoveries, peer-reviewed publications, and the development of transformative products for early cancer detection. This is a hybrid role based in Menlo Park, CA (moving to Sunnyvale, CA in Fall 2026). Our current flexible work arrangement policy requires that a minimum of 40%, or 16 hours, of your total work week be on-site. Your specific schedule, determined in collaboration with your manager, will align with team and business needs and could exceed the 40% requirement for the site.
