Organization Overview
The Vertebrate Genome Laboratory (VGL) at The Rockefeller University leads international efforts in vertebrate genome sequencing, assembly, annotation, and evolutionary analysis. As a core laboratory of the Vertebrate Genomes Project and a major hub of the Earth BioGenome Project, VGL is at the forefront of generating high-quality, telomere-to-telomere genome assemblies across vertebrate diversity.The laboratory provides an end-to-end genomics platform spanning sample processing, sequencing, genome assembly, and downstream data
analytics. It specializes in high-molecular weight DNA extraction and long-read genomic technologies, offering integrated library preparation and sequencing services for high–molecular weight genomic DNA, long amplicons, and full-length transcriptome sequencing (Iso-Seq). These capabilities are tightly coupled with in-house computational expertise for genome assembly, curation, annotation, and comparative genomics, and are supported by state-of-the-art platforms including PacBio and ONT.
Overview
The Rockefeller University seeks an experienced Project Manager to lead day-to-day execution of a National Science Foundation Mid-scale Research Infrastructure-1 (Mid-scale RI-1) Design Phase award, in partnership with Arizona State University and the University of Kansas. This award will fund the design of the Scalable Community Infrastructure for Biodiversity Genomics (SCIBG), a national platform to produce high-quality reference genomes at scale, strengthening the U.S.
bioeconomy, biosecurity, and global competitiveness in genomics. The Project Manager will oversee the project's day-to-day design activities across all three institutions, including task management, timelines, budgets, risk mitigation, and cross-site communications. This role also serves as the infrastructure development lead, coordinating the design of laboratory protocols, computational workflows, data management systems, and governance models that will underpin the future SCIBG platform.
The Project Manager will serve as the primary point of contact for the NSF Program Officer, ensuring the award's progress is tracked and communicated in accordance with NSF requirements.
